OK
I find the claims forms very confusing. I recently submitted three separate claims for Baxter. I received partial payment for two but received no payment or explanation for the third one.

two years of coverage and only positive results
I got insurance for four dogs almost 2 years ago. In that time we've used our insurance to cover regular wellness checks, heartworm medication, an accident that ran over one of my dogs and the most recent was dental on all four. It's super expensive but not once have I had any issues with my claims. I submit electronically, I'm notified they receive my claim, I'm notified with they are working on the claim and I'm notified with they have paid the claim and what benefits they've paid. Our home has no bones about this insurance and recommend them whenever someone asks.
