Glad I have Pet Insurance

I appreciate that I have Pet Insurance especially for the peace of mind it brings knowing that I shouldn't have any large expenses when my pet is sick or injured. The only think I wish was different is that I have to pay everything out of pocket and then submit for reimbursement. The Claims process is easy and reimbursement usually comes pretty quickly but my dog recently had a large claim that I had to pay up front. I know the Veterinarian would have to participate in direct billing but I don't think that is even a thing with Pet Insurance. It would take a collaborative effort between many Veterinarians and Nationwide to make that possible.

Nationwide Pet Insurance has been a life-saver!

Our now almost 15 year-old pug had pancreatitis a little over a year ago, and we almost lost her. Nationwide had our backs because we didn't have to worry about the hospital/vet/medication bills while we were nursing her backing to health! Since she's an old girl, she's having difficulty walking because of some back issues and she's receiving cold laser treatments which have literally changed her life! She's walking and happy again, and Nationwide has been there for it all! Customer service has been outstanding, and i'm grateful for this wonderful insurance! Thank you, Nationwide!

Nationwide has provided excellent coverage for us!

Our investment in health insurance with Nationwide has proven very wise. They handle claims fairly and effectively with a process that is easy and efficient. I am especially pleased with the recent addition of direct deposit of reimbursements through Chase.
