Awesome

Nationwide has an easy claim submission process. The claims are received and acted up timely. With notification on the website, as well as via email, as to the status. The EOBs are very self explainitory. And reimbursement is also a seem less process. The website if one of the easiest I use. It is very user friendly and easy to navigate. The information is readily available and you are not searching endlessly without finding the information you need.

Quick reimbursements and good coverage

Our aging kitty Emma Peel has had a few health issues this year--dental work and hyperthyroidism. We decided to treat both within a month of each other and she had a radioactive iodine treatment last week. She did great and I was happy and relieved to get the reimbursement within a week of filing. I wish human insurance were this easy and responsive.

Everyone should have pet insurance

Over many years, I have had pets with some very serious health problems and did not always have health insurance. Now that I do have it, I will always have it. I look at it like car insurance - you don't hope for an accident just because you are paying for it. I have pet insurance but hope we don't need to use it's full coverage. So far, I am very pleased with Nationwide Pet Insurance.

just one more thing

Filing claims is unbelievably easy. I keep Pickle's file at my office and fax from there. I would, however, like a straight answer as to whether this insurance will cover cleaning her teeth so that they don't get so bad that they cause digestive problems. Your answer please.
