I am glad I have the coverage

I am glad I have this insurance. The claims are processed quickly, within 30 days, as they promise. Sometimes it is a bit difficult getting the more involved claims paid. The claims for hospital stays require a lot of resubmitting and medical records review. I wish there was an easier way to process such claims.

Efficient and Easy

So easy to make the claims. I am so glad I had the coverage when we had this emergency. When the vet came in with her plan of action, I didn’t have to consider whether I could afford this or not. I knew I had 90% coverage.

Best Pet Insurance Company

Every pet owner should purchase pet insurance because our pets will experience getting ill and hurt during their short lives, and having an insurance company, specifically Nationwide, will help you through those difficult times, not only financially but by giving you peace of mind during those difficult times. Nationwide has been their for my little miniature poodle, Yogi, from the very beginning of his life, and we are so thankful because he has been battling crystals and Nationwide has helped us with the cost of tests and medications. Thank you Nationwide!
