Easy process to submit and receive payment for claim.

Nationwide has an electronic process to submit a medical claim and receive the reimbursement immediately after approval. This makes this most efficient with the least manual handling. Lastly, they review and communicate claim results in a timely manner. This is my first time with any Nationwide product and I am very satisfied.

Great Service. Great Coverage. Has already paid for itself in coverage

Taji got into something and gave us a real scare when she ran a temperature and wouldn't eat. My little girl wasn't playing or running, just sleeping and moving really slow. On mothers day we took her to the emergency vet to find she had an infection due to her swallowing something and it being lodged in her stomach folds. They had no choice but to open her up and retrieve the obstruction from her stomach. He recovery was quick and she was back to normal within 1 week. We love our Taji and would make the same decision again if we had to. The Monday from her coverage did take a long time to come to us, but we were thankful it covered almost all of her treatments and surgery.

8/10 great!

I am overall very happy with my coverage. I only down rated because my latest claim seems to be taking a good deal longer to process than my other ones. Otherwise, when other pet owners bring up insurance I highly recommend you.
