Better than "People" Insurance!

Filing claims is so simple! I fax and forget. The explanation of benefits is simple to read and payments are quick. The few times I've had to call customer service have been very good. Friendly, patient representatives who never talk down, they just explain and answer all questions.

Major Medical

Scamp's policy was recently renewed and I read through the exclusions and was really surprised at how much is not covered. It has made me think that maybe having the highest coverage that you offer is worth it. On average I spend $200+ on insurance a month for 2 dogs and I spend over $100 a month on their food that is Veterinary recommended and $200+ every six months on medicine. I am going to review it closer when I have time. On the whole I have been very pleased with some of my claims and not so much with others.

They seem to understand

Our most recent trip to the vet with our Sobie was traumatizing -- for both of us. However, Nationwide helped address Sobie's overall needs, because adequate support through our insurance for our pet is critically helpful.

I would recommend Nationwide health insurance to other pet owners.

I didn't use pet insurance review to make a decision about the insurer. I never heard of pet insurance review. Is there a human insurance review? I chose nationwide because it was offered through my employee benefits program. I think nationwide is doing a good job. my housemate thinks they should cover more things.
