wonderful
Khaleesi was under the weather for a week and spent 3 (days) only at the vet. She's fully recovered and back to herself. Her B-day was the 5th and she was 2.
So nice to not have to worry about cost with Nationwide Ins. Easy to file. Form and fax!

Thank you for your quality service
Having good pet insurance has really been a smart decision. We have owned 4 Bulldogs which were all covered by insurance through VPI (now Nationwide). You helped save their lives. Thank you very much for this service.

Best investment ever for our pets
Unfortunately, 2 of our fur kids have had major medical problems, resulting in a lot of expensive medical tests. Nationwide covered a lot of the expenses. We are retired & the checks we received from having pet insurance made a very big difference to us. We never hesitated to schedule a vet visit or denied any of the recommended testing or treatment. In a multi pet household, we feel the insurance is not a luxury. Thsnk you for your great service.

Good coverage, but the claim process/checking claims is awkward, and turn around time is very slow.
Nationwide offers very good coverage, but the methods for filing claims are outdated. My previous company had everything online. I only had to attach a copy of the paid invoices and fill in a brief explanation on the website. The "check status" should show all of the same information that is submitted to make it easier to track. especially if there are multiple claims in a short period of time. This is especially helpful since it takes a VERY long time for claims to process. Our previous insurance often turned our claim around within a week unless they were contacting the vet for more information. It can take over a month with NW. Hoping the process improves in the next coverage year.
