Nationwide lives up to their word

My dog was hospitalized for two nights with gastroenteritis, which resulted in a large bill. Nationwide covered 90% of the claim. I was so appreciative to not have the financial worry. This company has helped me out on many occasions.

Pretty good!

We have the wellness plan and have been fairly happy with nationwide. Our one concern is that they don't cover allergies or anything remotely looking like allergies. Frankie got a hot spot from playing at camp and Nationwide claimed it was an allergy and chose not to cover our bill. Dogs get hot spots all the time and it doesn't have to be allergy related. Other than this issue Nationwide has covered 90% of any medical expenses and that's been great.

The one and only.

We have been using VPI/Nationwide as our Health insurance company for our single dog for seven years. There is a lot of insurance companies available for pets and as it turned out. It was a very good choice to have picked these companies. They are very fair in their claims. I have never had to contact or debate them with any problems that have come up with care. It always has gone smoothly for all these years. I wish I could say the same for my and the families healthcare. The system that is in place now with Nationwide to submit your claim Is done by a simple email. The claim is processed very quickly. If there is any disbursement, that is direct deposited in your checking account. You you couldn’t ask for anything better than that.
