Claims submission
I often have difficulty with claims submission via fax. When I try to send it in, the fax machine often disconnects after 1 or 2 pages are sent. I fax many different businesses and Nationwide is the only company I have this problem with so I think the issue is with your fax machine. Since it does not transmit, I often get an email from your company saying information is incomplete. Then I am also worried to send again, or send via another method because I know you don't like duplicate submissions.
One other issue I had was I had 1 claim denied for preexisting. My dog had allergies that manifest in his feet with swelling and redness but this claim was for an actual cut on his paw....a cut is definitely not something that would be preexisting.

VPI Pet Insurance is the BEST!
When I adopted my Rottweiler Sophie in 2014 I immediately signed up for VPI insurance through my employer and I am so glad I did. Unfortunately, she tore both her ACL's and required TPLO surgeries to repair. I cannot express the relief I had when I realized this surgery would be covered. When I told my veterinarian I had VPI, he said "that's great, you are all set!' This surgery is very intense and expensive, but the only way to provide relief for this injury. Both surgeries have been done and Sophie is acting like her old self again! I tell everyone at work they need to sign up for this benefit!
