Long time to process claim
I submitted a claim of 190.28 on August 14, 2018 and another one for 35.00. I should be getting a reimbursement of 90% since I was 24.00 short of my 250.00 deductible. It has been 3 weeks and it still says it's processing. I called a week ago and was told it can take 2-3 weeks. Still waiting, not happy about the amount of time it takes to get reimbursed. Thankfully this wasn't too costly of an illness.

Purrfect Ending to Timothy's Health Scare
Timothy suddenly stopped eating and only wanted to hide. Since he normally is a good eater and very social, I knew something was very wrong. He was seen by his regular vet and then by an emergency specialist. Blood work indicated possible serious diagnoses. Knowing his health insurance would cover many costs, I felt that he could then have the best possible care, including acupuncture, a visiting nurse to administer daily IV hydration and medication. He soon started eating and becoming his "old self." Pet health insurance saved his life because his treatments were then affordable.

Grateful to have Pet Insurance
My 6 year old Golden had a leg injury and he required ACL surgery. I submitted the estimate first to see if it would be covered. I was grateful that most of it would be covered. I had to use credit cards to pay it upfront but I was so relieved that I would get reimbursed for most of it. After submitting the claim online, it was a week to have the money deposited in my account. The company called to find out how my was doing post surgery. They are a caring company.

Very quick turnaround
I was VERY impressed by how quickly Hartville reimbursed me for a $4,000 claim when my dog needed surgery to repair a torn ACL. Within less than two weeks, I received my reimbursement in my bank account. No hassles, no arguing, no endless amounts of paperwork. Just a VERY fast claim made online and BAM. DONE. THANK YOU for being so efficient and kind!
