Such peace of mind!

Nationwide gives us such peace of mind for all three of our dogs! It's so easy to just submit a claim and know that almost all of the cost is being covered. I just wish the claims didn't take as long to process.

What is the point of having insurance?

I got pet insurance earlier this year. As it happens, my cat needed a cleaning. She then got an infected tooth, and as a result of her "pre-existing" tartar build-up, the company refused to pay her medical bills. Very unhappy since this was advertised as a plan that did not take into account pre-existing conditions.

Worth the wait

As a new member the first time submitting a claim I had to provide the history/medical records for my pet. Once done the claim was under review and the payment came through. So worth the wait. They have also followed up on his status since he got very sick to make sure I was okay with what was being said and done for his care. Thanks for keeping an eye out on us owners during a very stressful time.

Best insurance ever

Unbelievably easy to file a claim. Response is quicker and easier to understand than my own health insurance coverage.
