Insurance gotchas

Like any insurance there are copay’s and deductibles and delays and other shenanigans that will mean that they reimburse you less than you expected.

Our experience with Pets Best Health Insurance

Our experience with Pets Best Health Insurance has been very positive. From our application for insurance for our young puppies through our first request for reimbursement for their first wellness visit with our veterinarian, Pets Best has been very professional and caring.

Pets best has been great to work with the claims responses are easy to understand but can take some time to be processed. But I will say they keep you updated the entire time. Pets best has helped us on multiple occasions with our Black Lab Pup. They were recommended by a friend and I will do the same to another person.
