Nice to have annual/wellness items covered!
I researched a lot of pet insurance companies and Nation Wide was set apart by the partial reimbursement for annual/wellness items. We also have issues with anal glands and would like to have the surgery but Nation Wide views that as an elective surgery and it is not covered. Overall I am please to see reimbursement in other areas.

Good Coverage for the Price
Good medical coverage for the price. Claims processing is a tiny bit slow, but acceptable.

Awesome turn-around time in claim payment!
I had some trouble in the beginning because I had taken Oda-Mae in twice and we still had no diagnosis. I really needed that money from the appointments, but they wouldn't even consider any payment until there was a diagnosis. This I have a problem with. The pet owner should not be penalized because there is no diagnosis. Medicine is not an exact science and sometimes things take awhile to figure out. I really needed the payment. Once I got a diagnosis and submitted the claim again, payment was turned around very quickly. That was excellent. I do wish that the diagnosis/payment issue could be looked at on a case-by-case basis.

Claims are processed quickly and coverage is clearly explained
