Ease of filing claims and helpful customer service

Plan coverage and price is very good compared to other providers. Claim filing is extremely easy through VitusVet app. Information in Explanation of Benefits is helpful to understand claim payment amount. Any time I do have to call in, which is rare, customer service is very helpful and always follows through on their follow up action.

Pancreatitis

Coco (my mixed breed dog) had spent the night throwing up and she was refusing food (which is just not like her). I was visiting my parents and had to take her to an unknown vet where they lived - meaning I didn't know what to expect for a bill, but I knew it would be high (blood work, x-rays and such). The fact that I have insurance on Coco made the decision making process much easier. I could get her the care she needed and not have to worry about the cost of everything. I just can't imagine having a dog and NOT having insurance! Coco was diagnosed with Pancreatitis and we were able to focus on caring for her instead of stressing over the cost of her treatment.
