best thing weve ever done is have pet insurance!!

Both our first dog, Turbo and now Lucky have benefited greatly from pet insurance. Turbo had two emergency surgeries and pet insurance helped us pay for more than half. Emergency vets are very expensive. Turbo had to have a neurosurgeon because he had a spinal cord injury. Our pets are family we would have maxed out credit cards to save them. Having the insurance helped greatly. We always recommend pet insurance to family and friends. Its like care for people, shouldnt have to choose between care and cost.

Good Insurance

Good program, can be a little confusing at first how much is covered, but once you have the system down it's easy to manage. I realize that pet insurance may need to be different than human insurance however I do wish that the program offered were more like my personal health insurance program and that the visit were more of a co-pay with direct bill.

Monthly Cost

Policies start at approximately $12 per month.

Coverage

Nationwide offers a variety of plans offering varying levels of coverage. The company’s most popular plan, Whole Pet with Wellness, offers 90% reimbursement for accident, injury, illness and wellness care, inclusive of exam fees. All Nationwide members have complimentary 24/7 access to vethelpline.

Payout Limits

Depending on the plan selected, there may be annual benefit limits or per incident benefit allowances. There is no annual limit for the company’s most popular plan, Whole Pet with Wellness.

Deductible

Annual deductibles range from $0 to $1,000. Most popular annual deductible for Whole Pet with Wellness is $250.

Age Limits

No age restriction to enroll in company’s most popular plan, Whole Pet with Wellness. Other plans may have age restrictions.

Waiting Period

14-day waiting period after application approved and payment of premium is received.

Exclusions

Pre-existing conditions are not covered on any plans (if a condition is curable, it may be eligible for review if pet remains treatment-free for at least six months). Whole Pet with Wellness covers nearly all veterinary expenses. Notable exclusions include boarding and grooming.
