Filing was simple.
Filing was simple, and I received confirmation it was received. Then I was notified it would take a bit more time than normal. All of this was greatly appreciated and actually unexpected. Shortly thereafter the final decision was communicated- in my case applied to my deductible. I can't ask for anything easier.

Pets Best was there every step of the way.
My kitty has Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) and in order to treat that he is on long-term medications (an anti-inflammatory and a steroid). This claim was for a prescription renewal, but Pets Best was there every step of the way through the diagnosis which included a biopsy (in cats, not an easy undertaking).
