Coverage Lacking

Very upset to find out testing for stomach worms is not covered by Nationwide. My vet was shocked and appalled, said this is the ONLY insurance she's ever heard that doesn't cover testing for potential infection/sickness. Each time Rogul has serious digestive issues this test will be required and we will lose $170 ($85 before and after) to know for sure what Rogul needs to be treated for. We are considering switching insurance plans for this simple fact alone. Very unaccommodating.

Great Experience

I have appreciated the ease of claims and the vet helpline. It has made dealing with Merlin's severe allergies much easier on me and my wallet. I love my dog and this has enabled me to provide him with the care he most needs.

Thank you for taking the worry of high cost Vetrinary care away.

Never in 100 years would I have thought my dog would tear an ACL, but she did. I was worried about not being able to pay for the care she needed. I thought I would be paying a credit card bill for the next 5 years. The claim was settled quickly and covered almost all of her surgery. My girl has already healed and is back to her normal routine. Thank you for taking the worry away.
