Quick and easy to work with Nationwide

I love being able to submit the claims thru Vitus Vet app. This app is super simple to use and is much faster than doing the old paper version and faxing it in. quick turn around getting payment made back to me, too. One thing i would like to see added to the app would be an update like when your claim is; submit, pending review, review in progress, finalized. Something like that would be awesome.

My little Dolly is doing great - good to know that Nationwide has our back.

Dolly had some serious dental issues. She had surgery, extractions and teeth cleaning and polishing along with a battery of blood tests. Nationwide took good care of us and settled our claim within three weeks. It's comforting to know that as my little lady gets older, Nationwide has us covered. Thank you Nationwide.

I tell everyone to get this pet insurance. I am thrilled with you guys as a company!

Fantastic on every end...fair, kind, responsive, timely...I deal with insurance companies (for humans) a lot in my line of work, and I am generally distrustful and critical of them so this review means a lot!!

Nationwide Pet Insurance has been a lifesaver for my pet who suffers from skin allergies!

I am thankful for my whole pet wellness program. If the claim reimbursement process could be sped up a bit that would be great. Other than that I love having this peace of mind with my pet.

I have not had any issues with claim filing with Nationwide.
