Expensive and Slow

Pet insurance is not cheap, but for the price you pay, it shouldn't take a month to get your refund!

So glad I bought this pet insurance!

I’m so glad that I bought this coverage for my fur baby, Porter. Frenchies come with all sorts of potential breed-specific medical problems, and without this pet insurance, I might not be able to pay for the health care and emergency care my little one might need. Usually, I’m sent the reimbursement on my claims in 2-4 weeks. The whole claims process is easy too. Best coverage for the price and well worth it.

Wish human health insurance was this good!

Nationwide is fast, efficient and responsive. Claim submission is easy through their app and they keep you updated as to processing time and status. REALLY I wish my own health insurance were this comprehensive and good. The one time i had a claim denied (due to unclear doctor notes regarding my dog's diagnosis), the customer service rep was very responsive in helping me understand how to correct and resolve the claim. Most recently my dog had a serious issue - mast cell tumor - and it gave us tremendous peace of mind to know that we had Nationwide insurance to help us out.

Nationwide is awesome. Too bad Human Health Insurance isn't as easy!

Nationwide was very helpful and the claim form on line was very easy to navigate. I was amazed at how much of the visit was covered. Thank you to Nationwide. Thankfully we have only had to use the insurance 2 times for Sophie who is now 9 years old. Great piece of mind having it.

Love this insurance. I have both plans for full coverage. Submitting claims is easy and claims are processed quickly. I especially like the caring nature of those on the vetline and the emails following up on my fur-baby's health.
