Best thing you could ever do for your pet

I have used this insurance for all my pets. In two years I have incurred more than 20,000 dollars in vet bills. Nationwide was a lifesaver in covering a majority of these costs. We had an older dog that developed Lymphoma and a dog under a year that had a twisted lung. I never have to worry that I cannot provide treatments for my pets. They even have a policy that covers Well visits and flea tick medicine. That is the plan we have.

On Our Side, So Far

Nationwide was very prompt reviewing Kilroy’s bills from his treatment following a fall last summer. I was satisfied with Nationwide’s coverage and propmpt handling of the claim. Unfortunately Kilroy developed some serious health problems this winter requiring hospitialization and eventually euthanasia. We’ll see how far Narionwide comes through for us with those.

Good benefits, but payment processing is slow.

The benefits are quite good for illness or injury, but payment is slow.
