Covered Open Heart Surgery including Bypass
We have had Healthy Paws since 2018. We ABSOLUTELY LOVE HP's! We will never have any other insurance EVER! We took our Weimaraner puppy in for an X-ray for his front leg limp (puppies being puppies), and it showed his super enlarged heart in the X-ray.
What ended up being a leg sprain, turned into much much worse and life-threatening. After a Cardiologist appt asap, Frank was dx with a rare congenital heart disease called, Tricuspid Valve Dysplasia, which dogs succumb usually by age 3 without intervention.
We found out that Frank was a candidate for Open Heart Surgery at the only place in the World that performs TVD surgery, @ Colorado State University Veterinary Teaching Hospital. He had Open Heart Surgery on 7/31/19 at 17 months old, which included Cardiopulmonary Bypass by a Perfusionist from the human hospital. Frank will be 4 on 12/9/21.
We chose the 90% coverage, not knowing of his heart issue and Healthy Paws Paid 90% of his surgery except for the exam costs.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Super easy to submit claims and fast reimbursement. LOVE HP's!
