It must also agree to participate in the state's guaranty fund designed to protect policyholders if any licensed property and casualty insurance company is financially unable to pay claims.

Unfortunately, most State Insurance departments will not be able to provide you with a list of insurance companies that provide travel insurance. Travel Insurance is a specialty line of insurance and is only offered by a relatively limited number of companies and is usually managed by a national program manager rather than by the insurance company directly. Best place to find a travel insurance quote is either to search the Internet for "travel insurance" or "compare travel insurance". You will find the major companies either way however, the simplest was is to use the search term "compare travel insurance" and than use one of the online travel insurance comparison sites which will allow you to quote and compare the various plans and companies on a side by side basis. Most online sites will also provide you with the underwriters ratings however, don't be mislead by them as they only provide you with the financial stability of the underwriting insurance company and not the reliability of the program manager that manages all aspects for them.
