Easy to submit claims, but medical review took almost 2 months.

Claims are easy to submit online. My dog had skin allergies with a lot of appointments and I had to submit all this medical records. It took about two months for Nationwide to review the medical records, before I received reimbursement for my claims.

Good foundation but go faster

I appreciate the help with the vet costs but on the other hand I pay good money every month for that very thing and I expect faster attention to my claims. My last claim took over 30 days and I had to contact customer service to inquire. After that all four of my pending claims went through fast.

Great service

Filing claims is very easy on the VitusVet app, and the check arrives quick after approval. Great Service!

although a stressful situation I was super pleased with the claims process and touched by your follow-up on his health.

This is the first time I got insurance on a pet, and I have to say the experience of having to use it was very easy and super helpful in covering an unexpected medical cost. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is on the fence about getting insurance. Its nice to have the security that your pet will be covered.
