Mismanaged Claims for my Dog Ziggy Leading to No Pay Out
I have usually have had a positive experience with previous Nationwide pet claims. However, my last experience with Nationwide was horrible. I submitted several claims for my pet Ziggy who had several medical exams and tests due to an ongoing cough he had. First, the time it took for the claims to be processed was appalling. It took over 60 days for them to be processed and I kept on getting an unclear answer why they were taking so long. Request after request was being made and I kept sending the same medical records for him over to Nationwide. In the end, it was determined that my pet Ziggy had a pre-existing condition regarding these medical exams and nothing was paid out for the claims. I do not believe that he had a pre-existing condition for he was adopted and no medical records existed for him. We started these specific exams and treatments when I had the insurance policy. My feeling is that Nationwide was trying to find every way to not pay out anything for these claims and found some type of technicality to not pay them out.
I currently have four pet policies with Nationwide per insurance and I as now I don't see any benefit to having these medical policies if every claim is scrutinized, and in the end, they are eventually not paid out. Hopefully the next time I will have a better experience or I will be looking for another provider.

Nationwide Pet Insurance is Outstanding
I have had other pet insurance plans and they did not compare to Nationwide. Every claim was contested and they refused to pay or fought for every dime. With Nationwide, once the annual deductable is met they cover 90% period. No hassle. Well worth the money and the knowledge that Obie is protected.
