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.

I am so glad my Vet recommended Trupanion!

My Vet recommended Trupanion to me when I decided to get Pet insurance. Our cat is like family and we will do what is needed and reasonable to keep him healthy.Trupanion has been very helpful and professional from the time I signed up to the time of submission and processing of claims. I suggest Turpanion to my family, friends and others I meet who have pets. Thank you Trupanion for outstanding customer service and professionalism!

Amazing!

My boy cat Sam started looking terrible a few years ago. We had him insured along with my other cat. We took him to the vet and after some expensive tests and an afternoon stay, we found out he was a diabetic cat! I sent in the claims to my insurance and was amazed at not only how quickly they responded with reimbursement but also notes saying thank you for taking good care of him and asking how he was, and most importantly, the coverage was better than my own health care!! Since that 1st claim I have had to make many more for syringes and insulin and the system for claims in upgraded from checks in the mail to direct deposit. It's great. I know when my kitties get sick, I won't have to have that extra worry of how to pay for it. It will be covered and covered immediately.

AWESOME!!

My pup ended up getting parvo and she was so sick. Our vet bill including the emergency hospital we took her to came out a little over $2000. But our vet worked with Trupanion and we were able to get it resolved in a timely manner. Trupanion kept us abreast with e-mails and calls as to the status of claim. They were great! Trupanion paid our vet directly and we just paid the remaining balance which came to a little over 35 bucks. This is great! My pup is herself again and we are SUPER HAPPY with Trupanion. I am recommending this insurance to all my pet loving friends and family. They are there 24/7 and truly helpful.

AWESOME

Trupanion came through big time. My 10 year old standard poodle was recently diagnosed with lung cancer, and required a specialty vet and specialty vet services. Trupanion paid full at 90% as they claim.

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.
