Great insurance

Love recouping 90% of my costs. You can receive reimbursement electronically which is nice. However, there are extremes on the timeline of when you receive reimbursement. It ranges from 1 week to 3 weeks later. I really like this product. I'm waiting for the day they reimburse the vet directly like with human insurance.

Faster Processing

Faster processing of claims would be nice. My dog’s foot was completely healed by the time I received payment. Also a texting a claim option would be ideal. Just snapped a phone of the claim and receipts and be done. I’ve tried with the email and the attachments always get rejected.

It pays to have nationwide!

At first I thought this company was too good to be true. Customer service was great and it seemed like their plans covered a lot. The real test I thought would be when I had a claim to see how easy would be to file and how readily they paid. To date all of our claims have been paid without tedious documentation customer service remains top notch. I can’t imagine having any other health insurance plan for our dogs.
