They reimbursed fully

Wow! I was expecting to battle it out. Our expenditures on our Dog got heavy but they helped us out. I am glad we are covering our Dog with this insurance company that has so far been honorable and operated with integrity. And we are talking about an insurance company! If only people insurance companies were like this, I think there would be much faith in our health insurance system. Thank you!

Nationwide has been very good about paying for my pup’s vet visits and in a timely matter. I would definitely use them again .

Nationwide has been easy to work with and they are good about paying in a timely manner. I would use them again if I were to get another pup.

Worth Every Penny!

We got the Whole Pet & Wellness policy for our Saint Bernard when he was 4.5 years old, as a precaution, hoping we wouldn't need it. Then, 6 months later, he tore his cruciate ligament and had to have TPLO surgery at CSU. Concerned that his policy wouldn't cover it since we hadn't had it a full year, I called Nationwide and their friendly customer service representative explained that because we had gotten the top policy, there was no waiting period - phew. I was impressed with their speed of payment on the claim. Then, fast forward another few months, and he tore his meniscus....again, super speedy payment on the claim, excellent customer service, and we continue to be loyal, happy customers. Thanks for providing this service!
