A worthy benefit

I have two precious four-legged babies that have their fair share of health challenges. My Pomeranian was diagnosed with pancreatic disease and my Shepherd has severe allergies. Nationwide insurance was an benefit option through my company that provides employees with some discount in pricing. I have top of the line coverage of 90% reimbursement with a annual $250 deductible. Nationwide is very timely and fair in working with the veterinarian on any diagnosis and providing my reimbursements without any disputes or delays. Like most pet insurance, as long as your furry baby did not have a preexisting condition before taking out the insurance, the plan I have covers a lot of insurance benefits. I gave it a 4 star overall due to the pricing. Due to my furry babies turning 10 in 2024, my annual amounts increased drastically which was a culture shock to my wallet.

Excellent Service

We have had dog insurance since our dog was born. Seven years in we have never had an issue with Nationwide. Easy filing a claim, usually within a week I get a message that claim has been paid.
