They Won't Cover ANY claims that I sent in

I am very sadden that Healthy Paws will not cover my dog's claim. Both my Vet's warned that the pet insurance industry is much like the human health insurance industry and many times that they don't cover claims. How right they BOTH were. Buyer Beware!!!!!! My dog got a skin allergy after eating something 2 days after the waiting period ended and because of that, they won't cover the insurance. This is a "newer" pet insurance company on the market and that brought down their ranking but I thought that they had good reviews. I took a chance and got blind sided. DO NOT GET THIS INSURANCE. SAVE YOUR MONEY! They haven't paid for 1 CLAIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

amazing. simply amazing service/coverage

Marketing information and websites are nice but ultimately I can only rate a company once there is meaningful interaction and with insurance that usually means a claim. My cocker spaniel had been insured for about a year. She had pre-existing cataracts so those were not covered. I decided to pay for the surgery to remove one from her right eye. It went well but several months later glaucoma developed as happens occasionally after cataract surgery. The glaucoma escalated so quickly that her optic nerve became damaged and her vision once again was very poor in that eye. So I decided to have the left eye catract removed and also do a preventative surgery to avoid any possibility of glaucoma in that eye in the future. I wanted her to have at least good sight in one eye. Because glaucoma is painful - I also had another surgery in the right eye to alleviate the glaucoma. The amount of money spent was astronomical -- $6000 not including medicines (on top of the previous cataract surgery a few months earlier). I made a claim requesting reimbursement for the expenses related to the glaucoma. I submitted very complex bills because of the multiple surgeries done simultaneously and asked that for a pro-rated share of the surgical and hospital costs for the glaucoma. I wasn't sure it would be covered at all since it was possibly the result of the cataract surgery (which was not covered). Well, it was covered! And my reimbursement was EXTREMELY generous in how they al

Amazing company

I recently insured my 1.5 year old pit bull cross with Healthy Paws. 18 days after we purchased insurance our dog completely ruptured her cruciate ligament. There is a 15 day waiting period for coverage. I was SURE they would figure out a way not to cover the $4500 surgery. However, I faxed them all the records and within 10 days I received a reimbursement check for my dog's medical care. There was no hassle, no questions and great customer service. I highly recommend Healthy Paws.

Healthy Paws is AWESOME! A+...

Healthy Paws is much better than I could have ever imagined a pet health insurance company could be. My Pit Bull tore her ACL at a dog park. The surgery cost thousands of dollars. The Healthy Paws check arrived to me in less than a week after the surgery. Their customer support people were very caring and knowledgeable. They literally spent hours with me on the phone over my concern about having this surgery done to my young dog. Healthy Paws was really incredible. I will use them for life.
