Fairly Painless
It was a fairly painless process to submit a claim. I just wish there was a way to update a claim with further costs related to the initial issue.

Easy to make claim
My cat needed emergency care, he was there for two days. It was easy to file my claim, it was processed quickly with no issues and I had a check within the week. I really appreciate how easy the whole process was and am glad I had the coverage.

Worth the money
Have had this ins. through 3 dogs, 20 plus years. Only suggestion to people is to get it when dog is very young and has no pre-existing conditions. We have been very satisfied.

New Pet Insurance Owner
I have never had pet insurance. I had heard that it was not worth my time or my money. But I had heard good things about Nationwide and I signed up. They have been the best. When I have to file a claim there is an easy online process. They communicate with me at every step. Reimbursement is prompt. I have been impressed with the whole process. Wish I had done it sooner.
