Best Decision EVER made!

Purchasing Nationwide insurance for my cat was the BEST DECISION EVER! We adopted Frankie from NAWS and while he had a few pre-existing conditions that i knew wouldn't be covered right away i did not expect him to develop a serious case of FLUTD, urinary infections, crystals etc. Poor thing had to be hospitalized and is on a special diet now which seems to be working. Approximately $2000 later i was thrilled to find out it was a covered expense! The whole process went so smoothly and payment was timely. Most people I tell this story to can't believe how well it went! Thanks Nationwide!

Moving from Healthy Paws to Nationwide Pet Insurance was the best move I ever made

Always was with Healthy Paws, but decided to check out Nationwide Pet Insurance. I have NOT regretted my decision since the switch. A bit more expensive as my Nationwide policy covers Wellness, which I was looking for. We even had an issue when a lump appeared a few months after the waiting period, Nationwide asked for all his medical records. When they saw the lump appeared a few months after the inception of the policy, they went ahead and paid it all off. When I see folks at the vet's office and they don't have pet insurance, I ask them to check out Nationwide Pet Insurance. The reason I checked "NO" in the question if I found reviews useful in making my decision, was I already had our pet covered by Healthy Paws, and I wanted to add the Wellness program to my policy.
