Great service. Worth the money

My claim was handled great. From coverage review at the vet to claim processing just perfect.

The claim submission was easy to understand and the turn around time was incredibly fast.

This is our first and only cat so we were clueless about what to do when he became seriously ill. The emergency vet bill was considerable. Nationwide makes the claims submission process so easy and they reimburse very quickly. It definitely made an otherwise stressful situation more tolerable.

The Nationwide Pet Insurance Health and Wellness program has been very helpful to us and our cats.

As I mentioned in the review title, having pet insurance has been very helpful to us, especially since Zoe has been experiencing unexpected health issues over the past 6 months. Filing claims is easy and convenient and we are reimbursed in a timely manner. The only complaint we have is the recent increase in monthly premiums, by approximately 64%! We understand the increase was the result of overall industry standards, but feel it was still quite high. However, based on past experience we will continue to purchase our insurance from Nationwide. Thank you.
