Glad I have pet insurance but not sure this is the right one.

I adopted a puppy about 8 months ago. She’s been extra high maintenance (parasites, heart surgery, several instances of diarrhea). I’ve been grateful for the pet insurance because we’ve already spent thousands of dollars on vet care for this dog. Unfortunately, the process to get reimbursement from healthy paws is frustrating. One minor irritation: you can only take pictures of the invoice to submit a claim on the app. You cannot attached documents or pictures. You have to use the camera to take a picture of a paper invoice. None of my vets use paper invoices; they are all electronic so it would be much more convenient if the app had the capability to upload photos or docs. My main problem with the process, though, is that they make little to no efforts to let you know that your claim is not being processed because they’re missing something. The result of this is that I’ve waited for 10 business days before reaching out to customer service, sometimes several times by email and phone, only to find out that my claim wasn’t being processed. Thus it takes several weeks to get reimbursed. Also, they do not offer pre-authorization so if you are going in for an expensive procedure (heart surgery) and want to be absolutely sure of your terms of coverage, good luck.

Excellent pet insurance

I've had Healthy Paws insurance for my Boston since the first week I adopted her, back in 2018. Not only is the customer service fast and helpful, having this insurance for my dog has saved me literal thousands. I am incredibly grateful to have Healthy Paws pet insurance for her! It's such a relief knowing that I'm financially covered if the worst case scenario happens (and it's happened twice now). I'd much rather spend the time caring for Sophie than worrying about how I'm going to afford the bill. I cannot recommend Healthy Paws enough.
