Unexpected coverage drop
My coverage was dropped 40% due to "discontinuing my current plan" that I have had for years. I was told the plan had subscribed to didn't exist anymore and I couldn't be grandfathered in and no other plans existed unless I cancelled and reapplied in which I would be denied coverage due to pre-existing conditions. I did add another dog to my plan before I found this out, and she is on a different plan with 30% more coverage than my dog, who was just dropped by 40% coverage. So another plan does exist, but I'm not eligible for it even though it's still less than the plan I was on for years. I used to recommend Nationwide to all of my animal contacts and through my network of training, rescue, adoption, Veterinary, grooming and shelter clients.
