Easy to apply, but adjustments take a long time.

Although the application process is easy, if you apply through an employer and need to update your address, the process is slow because the change must be made via the employer, and you have to wait for the data to synchronize with Nationwide.

Got to talk with a live person and got straight answers, and then was directed to a helpful person to re-establish my policy. I just wish there were specific policies and guidelines for Service Dogs since they live different lives then pets do and support real issues every day. Thanks

Clear guidance as to what was covered what was not covered that my Vetrinarian practice was part of your program and you had a very reasonable price for a dog of my dog age. Everything else I looked at was over $150 a month. I’m very happy with the plan. I hope I don’t have to use it much but I do have an appointment with the Vetrinarian on Wednesday, 23 July for her to get an exam and get her rabies and county license tags. I know that won’t be covered, but it encouraged me to look into what I could get for insurance. I hope I’m happy with what I got.
