Seamless: vet sent information directly to Nationwide, I got my reimbursement shortly thereafter

Happy and healthy pooch following what could have been a costlier allergic reaction, had it not been for Nationwide on my pet's side. Warm wags.

Nationwide Pet Insurance is a life saver!!

Samson is the love of my life and he is the sweetest and healthiest dog I’ve had! However one morning I saw him vomit with what looked like specks of blood and followed by bloody diarrhea. Samson is my baby and I was in a panic and rushed him to the emergency room. The tests they had to run on him was obviously expensive but I wanted to do whatever it took to make sure my baby was going to be ok. Spending that much money without a notice was overwhelming but again, seeing Samson healthier is priceless. I submitted our claim to Nationwide not expecting much in return and oh my God was I surprised. They covered about 80% or even more of our bill!!! I’m so glad we decided to get pet insurance through Nationwide even though we were hesitant since Samson was so healthy. Also the customer service is so seamless and exceptional. Thank you so much!!

thankful for the coverage

Just like insurance in general, you hate paying for it but you are happy you have it when you need it. This insurance helped pay for a good portion of the vet bill!

Okay service

Overall it's good coverage, and definitely glad we have it. Claim processing takes a long time, with no updates along the way. Also, coverage is often far less than our vet charges for services.
