Nationwide | Pet Insurance Review

So happy to be able to say I’ve done the best for my pets with their healthcare needs. The claims were super easy to file and the reimbursement was unbelievable fast. It’s a pleasure to say that Nationwide did exactly what they said they would do with no game playing. I recently got another dog and she is now too covered!

My Merlin has had a difficult 12 months. First he had a bowel obstruction and had to have surgery to remove a hairball. Recently he has been seen for a blocked bladder and has been back to the vet a few times this month. It's been a very stressful time for both myself and Merlin. However, knowing I have Nationwide has taken some of the stress away as I'm able to provide Merlin with the best care. Keeping my fingers crossed that Merlin is "over the hump" with his illness.

My spunky pup has had some bad luck when it comes to vet visits. From a complicated neuter to random ailments resulting in a very sick pup, Loki (my cutie boy's name) has been through it all! Luckily, the major medical plan from Nationwide Pet Insurance covers almost the entire amount from our unlucky vet visits. It is a breeze to submit a claim and they honestly try to find any way they can assist. For example, even though neuters aren't covered, since we had to go back THREE times due to complications, I submitted claims anyway and was pleasantly surprised that the returning visits were partially covered; PHEW! I am so thankful for Nationwide Pet Insurance!

Recently I had to get a life saving surgery on my Yorkie. She is just a pup and not getting this repairable surgery (liver shunt) would be cruel in my opinion. I submitted the claim and after reading the coverage I understood, however it did not cover any of the other fees because it was associated with the liver shunt that is not covered. I was very disappointed and am in search now of a pet insurance with more coverage. I have 5 pets covered through Nationwide and not receiving some assistance for the fluids, pain meds, etc., was disappointing.

My cat has been protected by Nationwide since I got her. I had a cat previously who got very sick all of a sudden, and still passed away despite paying many thousands of dollars out of pocket to try and save her life. This event was tragic and my new insurance allows me to confidently request any and all services that will help keep my companion alive for as long as possible. The claims process has been extremely fair for the 1-2 years I've had the policy. My suggestion is take it from day 1
