Max is doing very well after his surgery to remedy several scary issues.

I have not been notified if Nationwide is covering the majority of what I have submitted but so far, Nationwide has covered some (most are in review). I have been very happy to know that I have Nationwide to back me up. For a lot of people seeing the $$$ and not having insurance...it may be the choice of paying for it or putting your pet to sleep. It's good to know I don't have to take on this burden all by myself.

Very easy to file claims and prompt payments.

Peace of mind

Vet bills can be VERY costly. While it is difficult to pay the bill up front... it is peace of mind to know that I will be reimbursed significantly by nationwide. I wish that this would have been around 10yrs ago when I adopted my first dog (a min-pin). He developed diabetes and the vet bills were astronomical. Thank you for being there for my newly adopted Staffordshire Terrier names Rain

It's great to have some help in caring for my dog!

The care of my animal (Dog) is very important to me and to be able to have some relief financially for her care, as a retired person, is well worth the money spent for her health insurance. I have had pet insurance before and knew that when I was thinking of having a new friend in the home that this was something that I did not hesitate consider. I have found that Nationwide Pet Insurance is very easy to work with and make the process of pet care much less stressful. Thank you!
