Trupanion pets lead longer happier lives.1 Pets insured with Trupanion lived longer than pets without Trupanion because pet parents didn’t have to worry about the cost of the care their pet needed. Depending on the plan Trupanion covers up to 90% of eligible expenses, has unlimited payouts-always, and can pay your vet bill, within seconds, at time of checkout, so all you pay is your portion (anything not covered by Trupanion). They have transformed the way pet insurance handles claims by eliminating the reimbursement process. Trupanion was founded in Canada and provides bets-in-class coverage and is dedicated to helping pets we love get the care they need. They’ve been around for more than 20 years, making them experts and setting standards for the industry. One perk of this, and what they pride themselves on, is the amount they pay out to pet owners for each claim. Paying out more on the dollar than any other pet insurance provider. To date they have paid out $2 Billion in claims and have insured nearly 1 million pets. To put it simply, there is a reason why 98.7% of Trupanion members stay enrolled every month. 1Based on a December, 2020 Trupanion study analyzing third party hospital claims data comparing pets insured with a Trupanion policy to pets without a Trupanion policy. *Terms and conditions apply.

Timely and efficient coverage

This is not the first time I have had to use the insurance coverage, but I'm so glad I have the coverage. My Havi has gastro intestinal issues that we are still trying to figure out the cause. Trupanion has paid the claim quickly and efficiently. Thank goodness too as I'm on a fixed income.

All Insurance Companies need to lessons from Trupanion

Frieda has several serious health issues including epilepsy and elbow dysplasia. Her vet bills have been substantial. The stress and worry, while extensive diagnostics were performed, were mitigated by the knowledge that Trupanion was with us. The costs were beyond my budget. Without the unconditional support of Trupanion, I would have had to make a terrible choice. With Trupanion her conditions were diagnosed and are manageable with medication. Trupanion continues to support both of us by covering Frieda's ongoing medication costs and reimbursing me promptly and directly to my bank account. Their service is exemplary. House, car, and liability insurance companies should take lessons from Trupanion on service, rates, and loyalty. Both pets I have acquired since Freida are covered by Trupanion. I will not be alone with the worry and expenses of my pet's health ever again. Thank you Trupanion from Gina, Frieda, Toby and Minnie.

I didn’t know how to make claims at first so the initial process was a bit delayed.

I didn’t know how to make claims at first, so the initial process was a bit delayed. Once I knew how to do this it’s been very easy and helpful!

Monthly Cost

Monthly cost varies due to multiple factors including: species, breed, age at enrollment, gender, and postal code.

Coverage

One simple plan covers new injuries and illnesses, hereditary, congenital, and chronic conditions—once the deductible is met, Trupanion pays 90% of the remaining invoice. To view a full list of inclusions and exclusions, check out our sample policy here.

Payout Limits

Unlimited lifetime payouts on eligible conditions with no payout limits-ever.

Deductible

You can choose your deductible from $0 – $1000, in $5 increments, to fit your budget. Trupanion offers a lifetime, per condition deductible meaning that once the deductible is met for an eligible condition, you never have to meet it again. That condition is covered for life. This is great for chronic conditions that can span the entirety of a pet’s life such as allergies or cancer.

Age Limits

All pets under 14 years old can enroll. Once enrolled, pets stay insured regardless of age.

Waiting Period

Accidents: 5 days Illnesses: 30 days Other providers may have additional waiting periods for congenital conditions like hip dysplasia, Trupanion does not.

Exclusions

Trupanion was developed to protect you and your pet from unexpected illnesses and injuries. That means we don’t cover “predictable” care costs that you can plan ahead for, like: Examination fees Wellness and preventive care Elective, or cosmetic procedures Sales tax, where applicable Like all pet insurance providers, Trupanion does not cover pre-existing conditions. Whichever insurer you choose, it pays to enroll early! *Terms and conditions apply. Please view your sample policy for complete coverage details.
