It's Easy

I love the overall coverage and easy app claim submission. Nationwide came through with its promise on keeping my kitten's first year health expenses affordable. In my kitten's first year we had 2 office visit to make sure she's fine, 2 or 3 vaccine shot appointments, 1 pre surgery blood test and 1 spaying operation. All those visits for my very healthy kitten can easily be $1,000 or more. Nationwide was there for all of it. Any questions from Nationwide was handled between them and my vet. I just deal with the reimbursement checks 3 to 4 weeks later. Can't beat that level of service.

Fantastic!

I have had my pet insurance for Bella, since she was a puppy. She is now 11 years old. Having insurance has made a huge difference in her overall care. I had it on another Chi Penny, but we lost her to CHF. We now have another Chi, Gia she is almost 3 and yes we have insurance for her as well. I would highly recommend this insurance company because of the low premium, low deductible, and the ease of submitting claims and turn around time on payment electronically.you can't go wrong with this insurance. Customer since 2008.

Payment Processing

When I first began coverage four years ago processing claims were very quick. Now I am told it takes up to 30 days. This is way too long.
