Great Company, Great Service!!

I no longer have to consider the care of my Dog as a financial decision. During a recent Vet visit, the Vet recommended two different tests to diagnose the skin problem our dog, Lucy, was having. In past years, I would have weighed the cost and chosen the lesser expensive test to minimize the expense. Now I can decide with my Veteranry Professional, the best course of action because we know we are covered. Claims are easy to file and the response time is excellent. I could not be happier with Nationwide and I recommend this insurance to all of my friends.

NOT BAD, BUT EXPENSIVE

They are pretty quick with reimbursements. You have to pay attention to their list of covered diseases and surgeries. My policy has a maximum amount per year per disease, but they did pay up. I have an old policy with 100% reimbursement after i meet the $500 deductible. I doubt they offer such a policy any more.

Simply the best

I originally took this policy out to cover any emergencies that might occur. My dog was diagnosed with allergies and is required to take daily medication in addition to twice yearly blood work. I'm reimbursed up to $600 per year. This was a great help to us. Claims are processed quickly and customer service is very helpful and friendly when you call them. I wish my own insurance was this efficient
