Great Insurance but too long to process claims

Everything has been GREAT except for the processing of claims. It takes a MONTH/30 days to get reimbursed. I have spoken with several other pet owers who have different pet insurance and their turn-around time is within 2 weeks.

Surgery

Alfonzo underwent surgery yesterday for his glaucoma. Unfortunately, the drops were not effective enough in keeping the pressures down, and my Dr was concerned he could permanently lose his sight in both eyes. It was expensive but I would do anything for my dog. I will be submitting the claim today. Thanks in advance.

Disgruntled to satisfied

I'll be completely honest, prior to these two visits I was not happy with Nationwide and it's claims. I felt I wasn't getting back enough from what I was putting out each month. I was considering switching to a different pet insurance depending on the outcome of these visits. My wife and I were thrilled when we saw we would be getting back 90% for both visits and have decided to continue with Nationwide for the time being.
