You get what you pay for
When I was just thinking of cancelling the insurance for my healthy dog, boom the tumors come although thank god they were benign it was pressing against her sciatic nerve. While recovering she injured the opposite hind leg and now a ACL tear! My poor doggy and my poor wallet but was very relieved when my insurance checks came in the mail from the first surgery. Yes...keep the insurance 👍

After a lot of research this is the best insurance
Nationwide is the best pet insurance out there. My Vet had recommended National to me, but I still wanted to do a lot of research and chose National. I did not make a mistake they are great!! Payments are quick and always correct, no questions on my part Nationwide is very clear on reimbursement!

Great coverage, but response time of claim was slower than expected.
Sasha got bit by a copperhead and needed to be treated. She got bit on the tongue and was drooling and bleeding. We had to take her to an emergency vet clinic due to the late hour of the bite. She stayed overnight and was treated. The total claim was about $1000. The insurance paid 90% after the annual deductible, but it took several weeks to get reimbursed.

Excellent coverage and speedy response
I prefer submitting my claims by US mail and I get a quick acknowledgment that you’ve received it. Three plus weeks to receive reimbursement may seem a long time to most but I don’t use electronic funds transfers and the time it takes a check to reach me is quite satisfactory.
