Great pet insurance!

Healthy Paws is very helpful in case of emergencies with my dog. The process to open a claim is very seamless (you just upload copy of itemized receipt which your vet can provide to you). They process the claim within few days and usually reimburse you without any questions!

Great Company

Our Fig required knee surgery costing over $3000. After surgery, we submitted our claim to Healthy Paws. The process was so easy. In about a weeks time, we had a check allowing us to concentrate on caring for our sweet girl instead of worrying about a huge vet bill. The company even sent an email inquiring about Fig's recovery. It was so comforting to have Healthy Paws as Fig's health partner!

Healthy Paws makes reimbursement easy

I have dealt with multiple human and pet insurance companies in my lifetime and none have been as easy to deal with as Healthy Paws. The claims submission process is incredibly streamlined, the turnaround time for reimbursement is quick, and it is easy to access benefits. Other companies put up many barriers to accessing benefits, so it is much appreciated to not have to deal with that while also caring for a sick pet. It really couldn’t be easier - I gave them a copy of my pet’s invoice, and I get a direct deposit payment. With other companies I’ve tried, I dealt with many denials that weren’t warranted. I have never had that experience with Healthy Paws! And their rates are better than any others I’ve seen!

Healthy Paws is the best pet policy I’ve had

I have dealt with multiple human and pet insurance companies in my lifetime and none have been as easy to deal with as Healthy Paws. The claims submission process is incredibly streamlined, the turnaround time for reimbursement is quick, and it is easy to access benefits. Other companies put up many barriers to accessing benefits, so it is much appreciated to not have to deal with that while also caring for a sick pet. I really couldn’t ask for more, and that is very rare in the world of insurance. Thank you, Healthy Pets, for making the process so easy!

I'm so thankful we chose Healthy Paws…

I'm so thankful we chose Healthy Paws for our dog Wolfgang's health insurance when he was just a puppy! The contract was straightforward to understand -- and Healthy Paws has ALWAYS reimbursed what we agreed to and the percentage. There's no fine print loopholes, which is a tremendous relief. The on-line claim submission is easy and reimbursements happen quickly -- usually within a week! Amazing. Premiums have risen, proportionate to overall cost of veterinary care. We were told upfront this would happen, but it would not be increased due to any claims. I've found this to be true. Our first claim was after a bad car accident and Wolfgang was seen at an emergency vet. It was pretty late in a traumatic day so I called in the hopes someone could walk me through the process. A lovely, compassionate woman answered the phone and got the ball rolling. Rehab was recommended after the complex surgery, and Healthy Paws covered the number of visits the vet recommended. I am certain this is why Wolfgang doesn't have mobility issues at nearly 10 years old! Eight years later, Wolfgang is having GI issues that our primary vet recommended we see a specialist for. Healthy Paws is still covering what we agreed to in the policy, in a timely manner and with compassion. If you're looking for pet health insurance (and you really should) Healthy Paws is the best company to use.
