I recommend Pets Best to friends.

I have 3 cats with health issues that I recently submitted claims for. One in particular has liver and colon concerns -- possibly cancer. One of the other cats had thyroid concerns (since resolved) and the other has a sinus infection. Submitting the claims were easily done via the website and processed quickly. I also was able to contact an agent who answered questions. I have had Pets Best for many years and used it for several pets. I have also recommended Pets Best to friends as I have found it very helpful in try to keep vet costs down. Having it has also allowed me to go forward when more involved care it needed.

I just had my pdf files from the vet emailed to me, and emailed directly to Pets best and was reimbursed (I have a $100 deductible ) but within 7 days I believe which was great and appreciate how diligent your team is
