Excellent Coverage
Easy to apply for coverage. Phone rep. Answered all my questions. Submitting claims: I can do on my phone with ease. Unsure how premium compares to other pet insurance companies. They have never given me a reason to look.

Relieved to have Nationwide Insurance
We signed up for insurance for our Keuper in April 2016 for piece of mind, and we are so thankful we did. With insurance you pray you never need to use it and we REALLY wish that was the case now but sadly Keuper was diagnosed with osteosarcoma the beginning of February, it's terminal :( We are beside ourselves and as terrible as this experience is, we are absolutely relieved to be able to work on a treatment/hospice plan without having to be concerned about the cost. Taking the money factor out of this is a true blessing. Nationwide has reimbursed 90% of all our claims since the diagnosis, such a relief.

After the initial pet profile docs were submitted, the process is super simple.
The initial pet profile piece (submitting all precious vet documents) was not proactively sought out. Nor was letting a new client know what exactly needed to be submitted with each claim (receipt not sufficient, doctor notes are required). As a new pet insurance purchaser, it made my first claim challenging to get handled correctly. Once that was done however, everything runs smoothly.
