Nationwide insurance claims

Nationwide (VPI) has provided good insurance coverage to our 3 dogs for over 10 years. I would like to share my opinion that your claim process could be improved by showing for EVERY amount not paid the reason why. That way, I wouldn’t have to call and ask. There are some z codes and explanations provided, but not always - I’ve had some big amounts not paid with no reason provided. Also, consider why doctor notes must be submitted for routine wellness. Also, consider raising the amount covered for dental - $100 is way too low based on what vets charge.

No worries

When my dog recently got into the trash and ate potentially dangerous chicken bones, it was nice to be able to focus only on making sure he was ok and not "how am I going to pay for this?" The claims process was easy and I was reimbursed quickly.

After our doggie experienced a horrific injury the insurance paperwork was surprisingly minimal.

It took 8 months for our dog to heal from a horrid injury. Through it all the insurance company was always helpful. They paid for several procedures without delay.
