Even acupuncture is covered

Because acupuncture is covered on Olive's plan, she is feeling much better and is a happier and less stressed dog. I was surprised to find this is a covered procedure. She no longer needs pain medication because the acupuncture is working so well for her.

Claim payment could be quicker

Filing a claim is quick and easy when I email or fax but why does it take 5-6 weeks to receive a reimbursement? With technology, there should be no reason for long processing. Other than that, I am satisfied with the service.

My dogs care was spectacular and he’s recovering well post surgery

My GSD is now recovering from his 2nd cruciate ligament surgery, made possible due to having insurance with Nationwide. He’s had their insurance since he was a puppy, as have all our dogs. The peace of mind makes pet insurance worth the dollars we pay.

Pet insurance you can trust

This is the only pet insurance that pays you back % of your claim. However, the processing of claims is too long given that everything can be done electronically. I also didn't appreciate when renewal time rolled around, the premium had gone up $25 per month. Although they say its not based on the amount of claims you have, no other reason makes sense. My hope is that this won't become cost prohibitive as my 3yr old dog ages and I have to cancel the policy. I am happy with the service, just a couple of tweets are in order.
