Filing The Claim with USTIA Insurance Provider
No claims are filed directly through the USTIA. Customers can view a complete list of travel insurance companies currently members of the USTIA to find more information on the claims process. If your travel insurance company is not included on that list, they are not a current member of the USTIA.
USTIA is the US Travel Insurance Association. The organization does not sell insurance directly to the consumer, they only work as the middle man, of sorts, for companies that want to ensure consumers they are legitimate and trustworthy. Companies offering travel insurance can apply for membership to the USTIA. A current list of members is available at http://www.ustia.org/find-a-member/member-directory.aspx#1.
About a USTIA Insurance Plan
When you want to find trustworthy travel insurance the USTIA helps you connect with companies that have taken the time to apply for membership with the travel organization. You will not purchase insurance directly from USTIA and you will not make payments directly to USTIA. All payments are made to the company you choose to purchase travel insurance from. In the case of travel insurance, most policy premiums are paid in full before the departure date for the trip.
