Peace of mind.

We are so glad we chose NationWide to be there for Finn. We were away recently and he became ill. We were able to use a local vet who helped him to a full recovery with the knowledge that Nationwide would help cover most of the costs and for us to beable to carry on our holiday. Having pet insurance gives one peace of mind in the event of ones fur baby needing help.

We have saved nearly $20,000

Our boy Franklin has had a variety of issues over the years. (He is now age 10)The last time I totaled up our total out of pocket expenses vs costs covered by Nationwide Pet Insurance we had saved nearly $20,000. Pet health insurance was one of the best investments we have ever made.

Quick Response to Claim Submission

Upon submission of my claim to Nationwide Pet Insurance, I received an email from them acknowledging receipt of my claim. During the processing of the claim, I knew the stage of processing. After Nationwide's review, I received an advanced statement of payment of allowed costs, the amount I would be receiving, and payment was being processed. I received reimbursement quickly, I like being kept informed as to the stages of processing the claims. I was able to put my attention on my pet's needs knowing that I had made the right decision to take him to the Vet for needed care and treatment to return him to good health.
