Wondering who you use?
We are now both seniors, with no pensions that include health & travel insurance.
Our RBC VISA used to cover our needs for stays up to 15 days, that drops to 3 days once age 65.
As we will be staying for 11 weeks next year, we need to have added coverage.
We will not be traveling through the USA.
I have tried Goggle but all I get is advertising. I would like some firsthand info and/or experiences.
Thanks.

Check to see if it makes financial sense to get an American Express. My dad has a Gold one, and it has more than paid the annual fee when he has had issues while traveling.

I use American Express health insurance each time I travel. It is inexpensive and allows you to choose the coverage you want. Their credit card is not required. https://www295.americanexpress.com/travel-insurance/home.do?&aetiSource=FP10&extlink=ps-us-aeti-google-Brand-Brand_Travel%20Insurance_BMM-s...

I am buying insurance for my Dad right now through AmEx Mexico. They have single trip plans, half yer plans and anual plans - all of them with different levels of coverage for your budget.
Not sure if this link will work, but you may want to try it: https://www.travelprotection.mx/Paso2/SpotPlan. It is in Spanish...
They tell me the insurance people work Monday to Friday 8am to 8pm (Mexico time), the phone number is: +52-55-5169-5999.
Try these folks...
Check out what JOHNSON has to offer.
They offer a Prestige Travel Plan with Extended Health Insurance Plan.
Our coverage is for an unlimited number of Trips, up to a maximum of 62 days duration for each Trip.
Hope this is of some help.
Roberto!
