Would That Human Health Insurance Were This Good!

Nationwide Pet Insurance stands head and shoulders above other available pet insurances! This insurance isn't cheap (I have the total coverage, which only excludes food and grooming). At the moment, we just about break even in terms of premium cost versus health care reimbursement for my two three-year-old Shih Tzus. However, this insurance will prove INVALUABLE when my dogs get older and have more costly health problems! Nationwide pet insurance is truly in a class by itself!

Glad You Were There

Having a sick pet is difficult. Having medical insurance for him really made the issue much easier. Claim was very easy to submit. Refund was quick in coming.

Pet Insurance

Nationwide is very good the only issue we have with them is that we had approximately $1600 worth of claims last year so they increase our premium by over $50 a month seems a little steep to us

great experience with Nationwide

I have been very pleasantly surprised by the service of Nationwide Pet Insurance. The claims are easily submitted either online or by mail, the response is rapid, and best of all, their coverage of claims has been wonderful.It seems very difficult to compare plans, as it's impossible to know what they will actually cover when the claim when the claim is reviewed. I generally submit any vet bills, and let them determine what they can cover. Very professional and I would recommend to a friend.

Policies start at approximately $12 per month.
