Nationwide | Pet Insurance Review

I have had insurance with Nationwide Pet Insurance for years. I have 5 Yorkies and they get into everything. Don't have to worry about the cost of health care for them. I lost my bulldog to cancer a few years ago and it was very expensive but Nationwide came through for me. I also lost my oldest Yorkie to Cushions. You came through again. My youngest Yorkie broke his leg and my 2 yr old swallowed a needle. You have always been there for my babies. Thanks Nationwide.!

My dog tore his ACL back in March. That claim went well and it was covered. Unfortunately he tore the ACL on the other leg. After searching online I found out that dogs are 40 - 60% more likely to tear the ACL on the second leg. I also read online that most insurance companies will not cover the second surgery. Soooo I called Nationwide. The person I spoke with did read the disclaimer about not being able to tell me the claim would or would not be covered. BUT she said not to worry that it would be treated as a separate incident because it is the other leg. I went on to tell her that I read online that most insurance companies will not cover if it happens to the other leg. She told me that only happens when people get insurance after the first torn ACL and then its considered a pre-existing condition. I am not happy with the way this second claim was handled. Nothing paid out on a $4100 claim. I have insured this dog since I got him 10 years ago. I was told I maxed out the benefit for the year. Why couldn't the person I spoke with on the phone to ask about the coverage tell me I maxed out my benefits? Why can't I speak with an underwriter to find out if there would be coverage? I will not recommend this company to any of the many dog owners I know. Instead I will recommend Healthy Paws or Trupanion. Thanks for being on my side Nationwide!!

Everyone who owns a pet needs NATIONWIDE pet insurance. You all are awesome and well worth every cent of the coverage for my loving animal.

My husband and I have owned many pets over our lifetime. Just making sure that our pet has regular medical care can be very expensive. We researched companies that offered medical insurance for pets and discovered that Nationwide Premium Pet Insurance was the best plan for us. It’s been easy to use and customer service has been professional and personable in dealing with any questions we might have. We have recommended this plan to all our friends with pets!
