Underwriting doesn't approve you until you submit your first claim

I applied for this insurance at the end of January 2020 they told me to fax in medical records that I had and I did. They told me that underwriting would be done with my review by the 14th of February. I scheduled an appointment for the 19th. Not only did they not process my payment until after his first appointment but they refuse to cover a pre-existing condition that didn't exist on his original medical records. This is a total scam. They appear to be the least expensive. They appear to cover a lot more than the others. But they will find a way to make you pay more

One of the best benefits offered!

I enrolled in the pet insurance 3 years ago and am so thankful. So worth it. It covers some of the preventive vaccinations and medications to a certain dollar limit. And for my dog, she had broken a tooth last year (dental not covered) but since it became infected they covered a large portion which more than paid for my annual premium. And VitusVet is an awesome way to submit claims, and I have all reimbursements direct deposited to my account. Submitting a claim through VitusVet takes about 2 minutes. Also I noticed an improvement in response time to claims, in the last six months I received claims response information in about a week to 10 days. And bottom line, Nationwide helps to ensure that my puppy is able to get the care she needs and is happy and healthy.
