The Cost Of Wellness

I was happy with my insurance coverage for 2018. I would have given a higher rating if it weren't for the fact that the cost of Wellness increased by at least 20% for the 2019 renewal. It made the cost of insurance not worth the benefit of having wellness so I dropped the wellness for my renewal. I also couldn't get a definitive answer on aqua therapy coverage for treatment of my dog's torn cruciate ligament. This was the determining factor of whether I was going to renew my policy. I also come to find out that rules for physical therapies will be changing in January. A veterinarian must be on the premises or treatment will not be covered. I am not confident I will renew my policy for 2020.

I recommend Nationwide to every pet owner I meet!

I am extremely happy with the timeliness of response from Nationwide. They are very fair in terms of covering claims and take the time to fully explain each and every claim response. I am very happy with them and highly recommend them. No pet owner should be without insurance.

I'm glad that I have this Pet Insurance.

I am very happy with Nationwide pet insurance. It is a well known plan and accepted everywhere. My pet gets his regular visits and then some covered. It is worth the nominal fee that I pay monthly and I have peace of mind knowing that it's there if I need it.

I am truly happy that I have Nationwide Per Insurance. It has definitely made health decisions easier. My main issue is that it takes the full 30 days to process claims.
