No worries about the cost.
I have had enormous vet bills with pets in the past and would only take them to the vet if absolutely necessary because of the worry of the cost. Now I have no worries. If Walker is sick or injured and needs care I will take him without the worry or stress of the cost. Completely worth the monthly cost.

Great Coverage - Slow Processing
I love the coverage that Nationwide Pet Insurance provides. We originally had VPI then stayed with it when it became Nationwide. We have no complaints on the amount of money that is paid to us when a claim is filed and we have met the deductible. I do with wish claims were processed in a more timely manner as on average it takes 4 weeks. I also wish they had various deductibles that you could chose from instead of the $250 deductible. Other than those two issues, we are very happy with our Nationwide Pet Insurance. I have in the past contacted customer service and they were great resolving my issue. Yes, I am a "real" Nationwide customer.

great assistance with care
Our golden, Nola, is seven and a half years old. She developed small tumors on her eye and ear, and our vet recommended having them removed. The entire bill was covered by our pet insurance, otherwise I'm not sure we would have been able to afford the cost. We really appreciate Nationwide and the care they help provide for our pets, as we consider them part of our family.
