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.

Fast payment of medication claims

Trupanion immediately acknowledged the claims and I had reimbursement checks in hand in three business days! Doesn't get better than that. Thanks Trupanion.

excellent service

This is the second poodle insured with Truepanion. Excellent service with our first poodle and great compassion shown by your company on her passing, therefore we did not hesitate to insure our current puppy with Truepanion.

Trupanion keeps coming through

My cat had an expensive health crisis which we might not have been able to withstand if Trupanion had not lived up so spectacularly to its promise. The crisis resulted in a chronic condition which requires maintenance medication. Trupanion continues to cover the meds and has never failed to hold up its end of the agreement. We are very grateful.

Trupanion is great

I had an echo cardiogram on my dachshund two weeks ago. Trupanion took less then a day to process my claim for on a Thursday, and my reimbursement check was in my hand by Tuesday.They made everything easy at a stressful time for my family.

Great Customer Service

My dog required surgery for an injured knee and Trupanion was excellent from the first day! First of all, I could call anytime (day or night) and a customer service rep was there to assist me. They suggested I fill out a pre-approval form to ensure the surgery would be covered. The process was simple and Trupanion provided me not only with an answer, but a break down of what they would cover and what my costs would be within 48 hours of my pre-approval submission. Once the surgery was complete and my claims form was submitted, Trupanion had a check in the mail; which I received about 6 days after the claim. So difficult to find great customer service and a notification system like Trupanion offers.

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.
