Very easy to submit claims, very timely response and payment

I have had pets for 22 years, but never had pet insurance until a year ago when my company offered it as a perk. I have never regretted signing up, Nationwide makes the claim process easy and efficient. Snap a picture of the veterinarian receipt on my phone, submit a claim from the app in about one minute, and the explanation of benefits and the payment show up within days.

Nationwide is the BEST!

We purchased Nationwide Pet Insurance when we brought our baby home three years ago. We had previously lost our husky/german shepherd to a serious knee surgery that developed into to terminal cancer. The bills were high, but we would do anything for our pets. I worked at a bank that offered Nationwide Pet Insurance at a slightly discounted rate and when we looked into it, were very impressed. Willow has been with Nationwide for 28 months now and has had a few health issues and routine immunization and heartwork and flea and tick costs. Nationwide has been very easy to work with, filing claims are easy, and reimbursement is very prompt. If Willow ever has a serious health issue, I know I can call the folks at Nationwide and get friendly, caring advice and assistance. I will never have another dog without this insurance.
