Great coverage
Takes the stress out of making decisions for my pets' care. I never have to decide if I can afford whatever treatment they need, or go into debt to get it.

Nationwide has improved my impression of them
After we got our new shelter dog, I wanted to make sure she was well cared for and also didn't break the bank, thus health insurance for her. The first year went off without a hitch, but the second year with Nationwide was less than stellar. I proactively got her shots caught up (about a month ahead of schedule) because we weren't going to be home when they came due. Turned out Nationwide refused to pay for the visit because it was still within the same year. I tried to explain the reason, but they didn't seem to care, and it quickly became obvious that all they cared about was the money rather than looking at the situation. I decided to just bite the bullet and learn from the situation. Since then my dog has started to have "old dog issues," and Nationwide has been good about covering her expenses, as well as sending me follow up emails asking how she's doing. While I assume these are automated, and no one really cares _that much_, it was still a pleasant surprise. Then this year we discovered that she had a tumor, and Nationwide stepped up and covered the majority of the cost to have it removed, which went a long way toward changing my impression of Nationwide. I'm still hesitant to give them a "10" due to that past experience, but maybe I'll bump it up again in another year.

Great job Nationwide
Quick and easy claims process which I greatly appreciate because going through the cancer diagnosis and treatment is stressful enough.
