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.

Review of Trupanion for Bella Davies

Truepanion is the nuts! They are by far the BEST pet insurance on the market. THey answer my claims quickly and NEVER EVER hassle me with nonsense. They pay every time---just as the brochure promises. I can't say enough good things about Trupanion. My Yorkie, Bella, is in good hands.

Trupanion has covered every single claim submitted

Trupanion has supported our two senior dogs through some really tough times. Both of our dogs have required significant financial support and Trupanion has been there for us all the way!!! They also support us by covering 90% of medications for our old dogs. They take a lot of meds. Honestly, one of our dogs would not be alive without the help of Trupanion. We have been 100% satisfied with them on all fronts. Customer service and coverage. We will always have Trupanion as our insurance provider.

Very happy with Trupanion

I met a lady at a dog park who raved about how thrilled she was with Trupanion. I had very disappointing experience with another company but decided to give it a try. I'm so grateful that I did. When my rottie Molly was less than a year old, she injured her hock. Trupanion has been better than I could imagine in covering her care, including x-rays, MRI, bone scan and artheroscopic surgery. All of her care has been covered, including maintenance of gabapentin, pain meds and adequan. I'm so glad I took that woman's recommendation because it's worth every penny paid in premiums and more. All claims have been handled in a reasonable time. I can think of ONLY good things to say regarding Trupanion.

Amazing

Our claim was processed within hours and we received payment in just a few days! As well our vet was able to direct bill the insurance so we didn't have to pay out of pocket up front which would have been a huge expense. So thankful to the trupanion team.

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.
