Fast and super friendly service

This is my first experience to claim pet insurance. When I received all my letters and I have questions, I called customer service and they explain my claim to me in details. The claim is easy to set up and submit, just fill up the form and submit it with the bill from vet to the email address, then the claim will process with 24 hours with an automatic "received" notice email. The whole process takes approx. 2-3 weeks then I received the payment. So simple! I love it!

Claim submission is simple.

The claim submission process is simple. I appreciate the fillible forms that I can save and reuse for the next claim. I didn't use pet insurance review to find this insurance company.

Nationwide is the Best

Our Bulldogs have more skin issues in the summer due to the heat. Without Nationwide, we would not be able to afford giving them the best care to resolve their issues and keep them comfortable.

Excellent coverage offered by this plan!

We changed pet insurance carriers several months ago. Earlier this year, one of our cats was diagnosed with mammary chain cancer. Nationwide has been prompt in processing our claims and has continued to pay for her treatment. I have no doubt that my other policy would have maxed out by now. Also extremely easy to collect claims payments.

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
