Cost
I am happy with the claim process and reimbursement is timely, but feel the cost of the premiums is costly for the average consumer

Nationwide is always available to help with your claim needs
Working with Nationwide has been so easy. I was skeptical about getting pet insurance for my dog, because I have friends who kept telling me it was a scam. But if you read all the fine print and understand their pre-existing condition clause, then there are no surprises. My very first claim for my dog’s IVDD was approved within a month. Throughout the process, I was able to check the status of my claim online, and there was always a customer service representative willing to answer my questions and give me updates on what information they needed from me. I also received regular updates in the mail so I was never out of the loop. I know Nationwide is on my dog’s side. :)

Nation wide has been fast with claims when my puppy needed emergency care.
I have been so happy with being able to send you my puppies bills along with the form you provide. You do all the work with figuring out deductibles, etc.
Thanks
