Pretty great

I've been quite happy with Nationwide overall. I like that they cover the cost of preventative meds like flea control, etc. I don't like that they don't cover the cost of GI upset. For a long while they were taking a good 30-days to pay claims, but the last two claims I submitted were paid within a week, which was great! All said, I'm quite happy with the coverage and would recommend them to others.

Very helpful especially for a dog with health problems.

I bought health insurance for my puppy before her first vet appointment. My previous dog had insurance but not early enough and not as good an insurance company. This Havanese has serious digestive problems and needs RX food and supplements. She also has lousy teeth. Nationwide Insurance has been wonderful.

Thank you Nationwide

Nationwide has helped me to provide the care that may dog needs to live his best life. Claims are paid filed in a timely manner by me and paid in a very reasonable amount of time by Nationwide. I'm impressed with the coverage and how much it helps me to properly take care of my best bud!

Excellent customer service!

I have received only the best customer service from Nationwide. Unfortunately, my dog Blanche has had some medical issues lately. Nationwide processed all our claims quickly and efficiently, whether they were submitted by myself or the vet's office. I would highly recommend Nationwide!
