Excellent Coverage/Ease of Claim Submissions

So far, excellent coverage on well visits and preventative care as well as unexpected issues that come up. Well worth it to have insurance coverage for your pets, absolutely. Also, it’s very easy to submit claims and receive reimbursement directly to your bank account (especially if you use the VitusVet app).

waited too long for a claim to go through

We have received money back for almost every claim we have submitted. One was denied (round worm) because she contracted it before she was covered. We did have to wait almost 2 months for quite a few claims to go through because her leg fracture had to be looked into further by Nationwide. So, that held up all of the other claims we put in. But, we did receive out money for the fracture and everything else that we had submitted.

Great job!

I've been satisfied with being compensated for vet visits, but it's a lengthy process.

Great coverage, great, fast reimbursement

The wellness aspect of this policy is what I like best. It covers all preventative things we do to keep our love healthy.
