Accidental Ingestion Means Toxin, ONLY

While I understand that insurance companies exist to turn a profit, their earnings come from providing a service. I was heartily disappointed that Maggie's claim was denied, twice, because the (known) ingested item is not "toxic," but "an irritant", despite its doing liver damage to the tiny animal. I get the impression that any claim I submit will be denied for some technicality. The event was an accidental ingestion in that it harmed the dog. I had the "pet owners' peace of mind" offered is promotional materials up until the moment I learned of the denial. Now I know that profits trump pets and I will stop recommending Pets Best.

Pet's Best couldn't be better !!

Our Pet's Best insurance for our dog has been amazing ! It has relieved so much anxiety over the care of our dog, and the Pet's Best reps we've spoken with have been hugely helpful and pleasant. The coverage has been fantastic, and the claims are processed and paid within a day or two of submission ! Really, how could it be better ?? Now if only they could train human health insurance providers to do the job equally well ;~))
