We purchased this insurance "just in case." Happily, we did not need it.

I purchased the insurance plan to cover the total cost of my trip in case I couldn't attend. That was my main intention for this policy.
I experienced a terrible toothache while aboard on my cruise. The pain was so terrible I went to a dentist in Cozumel Mexico. I was charged $500.00 dollars that resulted in no relief from my pain. I would only wish future policies might include Dental Insurance if seen by a doctor. I'd recommend all to purchase dental if presented in a manor if one is seen buy a physician.

    Thank you for your feedback on the policy. The Nationwide Mutual Insurance Essential plan covers up to 500 USD for emergency dental treatment for an accidental injury to sound natural teeth. Both the accidental injury and the emergency dental treatment must occur during the Trip. This is industry standard for Comprehensive travel insurance policies.

    InsureMyTrip does offer Single-Trip Medical plans that cover 100 USD for the relief of pain to sound natural teeth.

    Please call us at 800-487-4722 if you have any questions about medical or dental coverage on any of our products. We look forward to assisting you in the future.

Thankfully, we did not need to file a claim-all went smoothly with no problems. We were glad that we had though, just in case.

Two months before our trip my wife came down with a very serious and rare bacterial infection that prevented us from taking the trip. When we cancelled with the trip company we knew we would lose more than half the cost per their policies. I have bought trip insurance in the past but never had to use it and was unsure as to how much I would have to fight with the insurance company to collect the money we lost with the trip company. Well to my suprise, when I called Nationwide (and actually talked to a human representative) she was very friendly and walked me through the application process. I submitted all the paper work and called a week later to make sure they got it. I could not believe it when they told me that they had recieved my application and that it had been approved and the check was in the mail.

Had no problems on the trip, so no need to file a claim. For that I am thankful, but I don't know how things would have worked out had there been a problem.
