Easy claims once original paperwork is through

They do a great job once original vet records are done. That process was a bit taxing. Since then, though, everything has been great.

Thank you for making taking care of my dog so easy

My pug has recently been struggling with frequent urinary tract infections. Her veterinarians were struggling to find out the etiology of her condition so we needed to complete diagnostic testing as well as labs in order to treat her bacteria-resistant infection. We are so scared for her, but Nationwide pet insurance has made caring for her less worrisome. With her illness, all we want is for her to not be in pain. We are so thankful for being able to care for our pet properly by choosing Nationwide. Thank you!

Premiums too high, fee schedule hurts when you have an older dog.

Customer service is good. Claims can be slow. Statements are understandable but disappointing as fee schedule has resulted in enormous out of pocket costs for me after reimbursement.

Monthly Cost

Policies start at approximately $12 per month.

Coverage

Nationwide offers a variety of plans offering varying levels of coverage. The company’s most popular plan, Whole Pet with Wellness, offers 90% reimbursement for accident, injury, illness and wellness care, inclusive of exam fees. All Nationwide members have complimentary 24/7 access to vethelpline.

Payout Limits

Depending on the plan selected, there may be annual benefit limits or per incident benefit allowances. There is no annual limit for the company’s most popular plan, Whole Pet with Wellness.

Deductible

Annual deductibles range from $0 to $1,000. Most popular annual deductible for Whole Pet with Wellness is $250.

Age Limits

No age restriction to enroll in company’s most popular plan, Whole Pet with Wellness. Other plans may have age restrictions.

Waiting Period

14-day waiting period after application approved and payment of premium is received.

Exclusions

Pre-existing conditions are not covered on any plans (if a condition is curable, it may be eligible for review if pet remains treatment-free for at least six months). Whole Pet with Wellness covers nearly all veterinary expenses. Notable exclusions include boarding and grooming.
