Efficient, fair, and easy to use.

I feel like Nationwide has done very well by my family. We have 3 cats on Nationwide, and 2 with serious health issues that Nationwide has supported us through without any additional effort on our parts. I would highly recommend using Nationwide coupled with the Vitus Vet app to allow for quick claim entry to ALL per owners as an essential element of your families health strategy.

Always been pretty good

They’ve always been good about covering everything after I meet deductible. Processing time seems to take longer now than it did a couple years ago though.

Easy to use, definitely worth it!

It's really easy to make a claim once everything is set up, especially with the app. I've been really impressed with the amount that the insurance covers, and am glad we decided to enroll when we first got our dog.
