Great customer service, easy to deal with and fair in every way. So far, no complaints about anything!

Nationwide has been very competitive price-wise, easy to deal with, fair in evaluating claims and extremely fair at renewal time. We have been very pleased in all dealing with them and we've had several claims in our first year. We were concerned that our premium might increase going into our second year, but it didn't go up one penny. We would highly recommend to anyone seeking good health insurance for their furry family members.

Please Be more thorough reviewing claims

Three separate times I have submitted claims and one invoice page was not reviewed. After waiting patiently for a response from a review, I had to resubmit a missing page. This extended my wait time for a full payment of the reimbursement. I would not complain but this has happened with 3 separate claim submissions and your turnaround time is pretty long at 30 days otherwise the service has been great.

So much more efficient, transparent and easier to submit claims than human health insurance!

My experience with Nationwide Pet Insurance has been 10,000 times better than with my human health insurance. Your policies are clear. Claim submission is simple. You explain benefits and provide reimbursement when applicable in a timely fashion! Submitting claims through Vitus Vet is simple and efficient! You could teach United Health Care a lot!!
