    Easy to buy the policy. Filing the claim has been a bit bumpy as we went back and forth with the doctor's note instead of the insurance providing a form for the medical team to complete. Claim is in-process now so hope they have all they need.

    Once the claim was opened, it processed and paid quickly. However, the process to OPEN the claim was difficult.

    Aegis required a note from the doctor and I had to go back and forth between the doctor and insurance to get the exact information Aegis wanted in the note. I also needed a note from the travel agent that the lodging was non-refundable despite the rental contract stating that. Once Aegis was satisfied with all this documentation, they THEN opened the claim and send a form...that needed to be completed/signed by the doctor. This was my mother's doctor and in the midst of her terminal care, it was frustrating that I had to continue asking for letters/signatures for travel insurance.

    It's always a 5 star process buying insurance, it's when you want to file a claim and get reimbursement that might be problematic. In this case, I did need to file a claim for an injury that occurred outside the U.S. I knew in advance that Medicare would not cover it, but was surprised that my medigap policy would cover a portion of the costs. Once those had been quickly recovered from Mutual of Omaha, then I filed with the Aegis/Zurich travel policy. The carrier emailed me a very simple claim form and I followed the instructions to the letter. They responded within a couple of weeks with a full payment of the remainder of my costs. Everything fully covered with medigap and travel insurance. Thank you Squaremouth, Aegis and Zurich for coming to my assistance so efficiently!

    Aegis was very caring and supportive. They called me several times to check on how my mother was doing. They were very prompt about providing the necessary forms to fill out. The process was straightforward. Great company

    This process has taken months with no resolve. I've provided all information except one airline ticket for one of my daughters which I deleted it as I thought this was over after they said they would be sending me a check. Hey are denying my entire claim for both my daughters which were both in the hospital.

    I understand policy.

    Kent passed away, and we filed a claim which was paid promptly, but the check was made out to the “estate of Kent Peterson” I tried to get it changed to the name of the executor but they couldn’t change it. An estate account is only valid in probate of which there was none on Kent’s estate. It is not possible to set up an estate account after the fact so check can not be cashed or deposited.

    Once I decided to file a claim, the response with regards to the claim was prompt and forms were sent to me expeditiously.

    Squaremouth is an excellent venue to see a variety of coverage plans and fees. We had to cancel our trip 4 days prior to leaving due to a newly diagnosed case of colon cancer that had a sense of medical urgency. We called Aegis immediately and started our claim Nov 8 which was filed Dec 4 after meeting with the surgeon for needed signature.

    Review Updated: 01/02/2025

    While filing a claim was arduous, the process seemed fair and timely.

    The claim asked for a physician tax I D number which I found unnecessary and unattainable. It did not affect the outcome of the claim.

    I would use this company again. Thank you.
