Highly Recommend Nationwide for your Pet
The only complaint I have is the time between Nationwide receiving the claim and receiving reimbursement.

Submitting a claim is pretty easy, but e-mail communication was non-existent
Submitting a claim was fairly straight-forward, but Nationwide only approved a small fraction of my initial claims with no explanation. I got a follow-up letter in the mail saying that additional medical history documentation was required (it would be nice if the reason most of my claim was denied was provided upfront). I e-mailed the requested documents and got no response or confirmation of receipt. After about a week, I e-mailed again to make sure they got it. Still no response. Then I got a letter in the mail another week or so after that saying "the forms were received". Why couldn't this have been done more quickly through e-mail? I know that an insurance company has to deal with a lot of claims on a daily basis, but it's 2019. Even one e-mail response from them that said "Forms received" would've saved me a lot of stress.
Nationwide eventually processed the other portion of my claims as expected, but the whole process took longer than a month, which I feel could've been done a lot quicker if they took e-mail communication more seriously.

On your side indeed!
I’m so very happy we had this policy in place! I was hoping we’d never have to use it but filing a claim online was a breeze. Couldn’t have made it any easier and the timeline was great.
