Healthy Paws | Pet Insurance Review

My dog had to go to the emergency for severe diarrhea with blood and major dehydration (as we found out). He had to stay overnight and after the whole ordeal his bill came out to over $1400. Just for diarrhea!! Healthy Paws paid me over $1100 of that back (they took off the $100 deductible, examination fee, and they took take of 90% of the rest of the bill). I was calm during the whole incident because I new I was covered by Healthy Paws. I would never have another pet with out insurance. I had to pay over $3,000 (before insurance) for pneumonia when I first got my pet and never again!

They do not provide the services that the claim. Instead of helping me with any of my $500 worth of animal related expenses, they instead increased my expenses by $20 per month per animal. So since October, I have paid Health Paws roughly $320. However, they only cover about 1/4 of what they say they do. The whole point of insurance is to get help in case your animal gets sick. So, for my cat that needed veterinary services, I have paid $160 thus far. He has bills of $500. 80% would be $400. After my $250 deductible, this would actually help me. However, they play very unfair games. The have my $160 (plus $160 for the other, healthy cat) and they finagle the numbers so that the covered percentage of $500 is somehow only $133.32. So it doesn't even begin to offset my deductible. Therefore, instead of helping at all, my $500 of expenses on Remy has become $660. Thanks healthy paws!

Our one year old Golden Retriever became very lethargic and seemed to be in pain. After numerous tests they could not find any thing serious. He came home with meds and slowly came back to normal. Healthy Paws handled my first time claim within a week and a few days later I had a check.They also via e-mails seemed to really care about Maxie. They were a pleasure to deal with and I would highly recommend them.

We rescued a a pit bull stray and knew that we definitely wanted some type of health insurance for her. Pit bulls are known for having delicate stomachs and knee problems. We asked around and several people we knew recommended Healthy Paws. We have been so pleased with the coverage and the compassion this company has for it's clients. They even email me to check in on our Bella when they know she hasn't been well. The claim process is easy and reimbursement is quick! Bravo Healthy Paws!

I was not a great believer in pet insurance, but I am now. You never know when you are going to need it, we needed it last year when we were on vacation with our babies. Recently one of our babies had knee surgery and ran into complications after, had to spend night at the emergency clinic on a weekend, etc..in a week and a half we spent $3,000 and they paid 80% of it. No questions, no problems, we received the checks in the mail the next week. I cannot say enough good things about Healthy Paws, they are the best.
