Healthy Paws | Pet Insurance Review

I started a health insurance plan for my dog when we rescued him from the shelter 3 years ago. Fortunately, I didn't need to submit any claims to Healthy Paws for about 3 years and it seemed I was paying for something I wasn't really needing....until we had a doggie medical issue that required surgery. Filing the claim with Healthy Paws was easy. I paid the vet bill at the time of service, went home and opened the Healthy Paws app. I took a picture of the vet bill through the app and sent in the claim. Healthy Paws asked for the vet notes to be sent over to them as well, and after my vet sent over the notes, I had a check in my mailbox covering exactly what they said they would cover. When my dog went in for surgery 2 weeks later, I did the same thing with the pet hospital bill, and again within 2 weeks I got a check from them that covered everything they promised to cover. The policy saved my thousands of dollars on the surgery. There were no "fine print" issues or "got'cha" technicalities. Their coverage details were clear from day 1 and they delivered exactly as advertised when I needed them most. The health insurance is a gamble, but if you're looking for it, my experience with this company has been wonderful. They even sent out an email asking how my dog was doing about a week after his surgery. Healthy Paws came through when I needed them and filing claims with my phone and the app was simple. My dog is healing from surgery, and I would have been scrambling to find a way to pay if I didn't have this plan with Healthy Paws. If you're questioning how reliable they would be if your pet had an issue, I couldn't ask for a better and easier experience than what they just provided for me and my dog.

I have been with Healthy pets three times. It’s not intuitive. I’ve called three times due to errors on their part. They say they process in 10 days, but I’ve had a claim outstanding for almost a month.

I purchased pet insurance on my Aussie, Bandit, when he was a puppy. He is now 7 years old and thankfully I've only needed to use the insurance for two illnesses so far in his life. Healthy Paws has been there for me in our time of need. The first was an eye injury that resulted in an emergency specialist hospital visit on a weekend during Covid. Multiple visits and many eye drop refills later, I never had an issue with claim reimbursement. My most recent event was a mass we found in Bandits mouth that turned out to be cancer and resulted in a partial mandibulectomy. He is two weeks post-op today and the claim staff once again handled my claims quickly and reimbursement was deposited quickly in my bank acct. They also sent a follow-up asking how Bandit was doing. An amazing company and I recommend them to friends any time I can.

We have had Healthy Paws for our two dogs since 2012. The insurance pays for what they cover as outlined in their contract. We have two rescue dogs that we have loved and cared for as part of our family. Fortunately for most of their life they have been well but recently have taken ill needing much medical assistance. We have purchased the 90% reimbursement option that Healthy Paws offered since 2012 per their contract agreement. We are so glad we have done this as between our two dogs we are into thousands of dollars of claims that Healthy Paws was there for us in our time of need. No matter how old your pet is you will never know when you might need financial help. I witnessed a person in the pet emergency room with their pet that was only 3 years old facing about a $10,000 bill without insurance. Yes, pet insurance does cost some money, but piece of mind will have you think twice of getting some. Healthy Paws I feel is a very good company to insure your pet with. Give them a try as you never know what tomorrow brings.
