ABSOLUTE JOKE

ABSOLUTE JOKE - AVOID AT ALL COSTS Denied my claim because my dog's allergies that we just were deemed a “pre-existing condition”despite us rescuing him a few months ago. Total BS, cancelled my plan on the spot.

Pets Best Illegally Denying Claims - FRAUD

Pets Best denied my claim for my dogs chemotherapy treatment. They have covered all past claims for his treatment and this is not considered a pre-existing condition. I have an unlimited reimbursement amount. They've been covering it up until now and then denied it for "take home prescription medication" are you kidding me???? Can this company read? The claim I submitted clearly shows my bill as in house chemotherapy that was performed in a hospital. What kind of company can't even tell that chemotherapy IV treatment is not done at home as a prescription, this is basic medical knowledge. Pets Best is SCAMMING me and ILLEGALLY denying my claims!!!!!

VETERINARIAN: Veterinary Emergency Care

POSTED: | BY: Dreama Lyons

Panicked Mama

My boy Louis had a vaccine on Saturday and woke up Sunday vomiting, several times. I freaked out, thinking it may have been a reaction to his vaccine. I rushed him to the ER Vet..they took such good care of him and me while we were there. It turned out to me nothing other than an upset tummy but having Pets Best Insurance allowed me to take him in without the fear of a costly vet bill. So thankful that I signed Louis up when he was just a pup. They also covered his care after he broke his leg at daycare. In my opinion THE BEST!!
