Travel insurance? Trip back to US from UK in July...

Hello everyone!

I'm a US citizen and will be making my first trip back to the US from the UK after coming over to get married in September.  I am interested in getting travel insurance as I no longer have private insurance since moving to the UK (just been using NHS).  I'm not quite sure how to go about this as most companies in the UK have a UK citizen only policy.  Should I get insurance through an American company and use my parents' address as my residence?  I'm a bit confused - I just don't know how to go about this....

Has anyone - US citizens in the UK specifically - purchased travel insurance to visit the US from the UK?  Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!!

Check out moneysupermarket.com or gocompare.com and I've found a few policies there that will cover UK residents as long as you've been in the UK for a minimum of 6 months. You'll just have to shop around.

We use atlasdirect.net which covers us for travel to the US and Europe. Definitely get insurance - the one time I went back to the US without it I fell and broke my leg!

I'm a bit late to reply but hopefully you will see it.  I have found that the post office also offers travel insurance and you can be American as well.  I have found the same problem and will look at their rates next time.

if you have an Amex card you can get travel insurance through them as well.

When Dh & I went back to the States in May of this year we used a company called Simple Travel Insurance who are reasonably priced. Good Luck with whoever you choose.    

Marks and Spencer does travel insurance which is quite good. Have had experience using it in the states and they were helpful and there were no complications. Well worth it.
