Best Pet Insurance Choice

I would highly recommend Health Paws to anyone looking for affordable pet insurance. I've dealt with other companies in the past. When I received huge premium increases from the company I used for 7 years (since he was a puppy), I started looking for another option. Health Paws is by far the best deal. They have very few limitations on what is covered, offer many policy options so you find the right policy for your budget, and have been super friendly during claims. I just recently had to make the decision to have my Tyler's eye removed due to Glaucoma. Even though husky's are prone to that, it was still covered. The previous company I used didn't cover hereditary conditions. They answered all my questions promptly throughout the process. They covered the ER charges when his eye was swollen, meds and a few procedures to try to get it under control and ultimately the surgery and recovery costs when that was needed as well. The rep was even kind enough to review my surgery quotes and help me decide which procedure I should go with. After the surgery, I emailed her the invoice. The claim was literally processed in less than an hour since she had already seen the quote. It was such a relief to know when those bills were coming in, that I could concentrate on my pups care. Best decision I made switching to Healthy Paws.

Excellent Customer Service!

When researching pet insurances, I had seen several companies who looked pretty good...but none of them compared to Healthy Paws. When my dog had TTA (ACL Surgery for dogs), I knew that the $3000 surgery wouldn't be a factor in my decision to have it done. The claim processing, and most of all the customer service is absolutely outstanding! When you speak to a representative, you not only get amazing service, but you have peace of mind and reassurance. I am very happy with Healthy Paws, it's a "no-brainer" to go with them for your pet.

$1950 Surgery. Received check in 10 days!

HEALTHYPAWS is AWESOME! I've always thought insurance companies of any kind are a scam because of the numerous stories I've heard. We just moved to the States from Taiwan in 2015 with our two beloved pomeranians. I knew the medical cost for pets are crazily high, especially compared to where I'm from, so I purchased insurance for my dogs as soon as we settled in (got the premium that covers 90%). 1.5 year went by with just one visit to the vet because of diarrhea, then at the end of March 2017, the unthinkable happened! Our 10m baby was in his baby walker and hit one of my dogs and broke her leg. The surgery costed $1950! I received the check of 90% of the medical bill minus $100 deductable within 10 days of the accident! WOW WOW WOW! Thank you Healthypaws!

Super quick claim processing

I bought my import puppy and after it arrived he was diagnosed with Parvo. He was treated at the hospital for 5 days and the bill was more than $7,000, luckily, I had purchased HealthyPaws insurance for the puppy a few weeks after it was born. Because it was imported and it was a small puppy I only had the import documents to submit, still the insurance company said it was not a problem. In a few days HealthyPaws processed my claim and sent a check to cover 90% of my costs to treat my puppy. The agents were kind and understanding as I had limited paperwork from the European breeder I would highly recommend this insurance company.

Linear blockage stomach & Intestine

Our little 14 month old puppy started vomiting uncontrollably. After x-rays, emergency ultrasound, fluids, medications etc., etc., and a total of 1 week in ICU including a surgery…. She now is on the mend and doing great! She has about a 5 inch ‘battle scar’ to show for her decision to swallow pieces of a nylabone chew toy. This episode started on a Saturday morning, our vet off so off to the 24 hour emergency hospital. It was so nice knowing she had the best care and we did not have to worry about the pet bills breaking the bank, because of our Healthy Paws Pet Insurance policy. I had been with a competitor for pet insurance for years with previous dogs but after a friend referred to Healthy Paws, So glad I switched. We never expect these things to happen, however they do. My 90% reimbursement was received within about 8 days of faxing the invoice and reports. I received email updates on the status of my claim throughout the process, seamless and painless!They even followed inquiring as to how she was doing and if we had any questions.
