Hi Victor, thanks for your time and feedback. Rest assured, we’re continually focused on enhancing efficiency and reducing the time it takes to process claims. Claims are processed in the order they are received. Medical claims are processed within 35 days and wellness claims within 18 days currently. However, if there is a wellness claim with medical treatment on the invoice, the wellness claim will usually be held to the medical claim processing time as we process the invoice in its entirety for both. We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused and thank you for your patience. Our Wellness Endorsements are a set schedule of benefits that are not subject to a deductible or co-pay. Each line item on the schedule is the maximum the policy will pay for that line item for your pet in a policy year. You can find the Wellness Schedule under Documents and Forms in your account on our website. We’d be happy to go over your claims and coverage with you. You can contact our Customer Care Team by calling (877) 738-7237. Our phone hours are Monday through Friday from 6:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. MDT and Saturday from 6:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. MDT. Another available option is to chat with an agent by logging into our website at www.petsbest.com and clicking on the blue speaking bubbles. Our chat hours are Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. MDT and Saturday from 7:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. MDT. We look forward to hearing from you if we can be of further assistance and hope you have a great rest of your day. – PF

Terrible. They have no problem taking my money immediately every single month, but when I submitted a claim I was told to expect a 35 day turnaround time! When I eventually received my payment, it was MUCH less than I expected. I would not recommend Pets Best to anyone.

Hi Gerald, thanks for your time and feedback. Rest assured, we’re continually focused on enhancing efficiency and reducing the time it takes to process claims. Claims are processed in the order they are received. Accident and Medical claims are processed within 35 days currently. When you receive an Accident and Illness claim Explanation of Benefits from us, if any of the processing went toward the co-pay or deductible, that means the claimed condition was coverable. If a claim is denied or ineligible for coverage the amount would be in the ineligible column, and the Explanation section would show why it was denied. Keep in mind all Accident and Illness policies have a Policyholder chosen per pet co-pay and deductible that must be met before reimbursing on eligible claims. It is written into our newer underwriter’s Accident and Illness policy that we apply the Policyholder’s chosen Co-Insurance, minus the Policyholder’s chosen Deductible, up to the Annual Limit of the policy. What this means is, on an eligible Accident and Illness claim, we apply the Co-Insurance percentage first to all eligible line items, and then the Annual Deductible, and what’s remaining is the Reimbursement, up to the Annual Limit of the Policy. That’s because the Policyholder is responsible for the Co-Insurance percentage on the entire eligible invoice, even before meeting the Annual Deductible for the policy year. You can find your Policy Documents under Documents and Forms in your account on our website. We’d be happy to go over your claims and coverage with you.

I have spent over $5200 in the last 3 days wars and not once put one claim through, and not only did I I have to wait almost 2 months for my money , they face me a hard time for a $500 claim and I have a $250 deductible so basically $250. One of the medications they are saying It’s not a necessity and they aren’t comfortable covering it. Thank s is literally the worst insurance. I have 3 dogs under the this one and one under Nationwide for the last 15 years, I’m calling them and seeing if they can match it and telling my brother to go back to them since I told him to use you 3 years ago. You are losing 2 customers.

Hi Lisa, thanks for your time and feedback. We’re sad to hear that we may lose you both as customers. Rest assured, we’re continually focused on enhancing efficiency and reducing the time it takes to process claims. Claims are processed in the order they are received. Medical claims are processed within 35 days currently. For a medication to be considered for coverage under our Accident and Illness policy, the Policyholder must subscribe to Take Home Prescriptions, the condition must be a covered condition, and the medication must be on our List of Covered Medications, which can be found under Documents and Forms in your account on our website. If these requirements are not met, the medication wouldn’t be covered by the Accident and Illness policy. You’re welcome to reach out to us if you have any other questions, we’d be happy to help.

I feel I have wasted two years of consistent payments to this company for nothing. I have a two year old puppy and at one years old he was hurt while playing in daycare and after months of not realizing he was injured, he finally could not walk anymore. After bringing him to a specialist, I learned that he pulled his meniscus. At the time I had this insurance for five months and because they do not cover ligament issues until six months they would not cover it. His surgery was going to cost 5000. Now they will not cover it because it is considered to be pre-existing. Now my dog has torn his other meniscus and because I can’t afford 11,000 for him to have surgery I am forced to find alternatives that are devastating to think of. I hate this company and I wish I would have been explained the small Print writing in bold reading because they have wasted my time and money now for two years. They don’t care about your pet all they care about is getting their money. I highly suggest a different company. All their employees are rude and unsympathetic.

Hi Gabriella, thank you for your time and feedback. We’re sad to hear about your pet’s condition. We continually strive to deliver the best experience and apologize if any of your experiences with us have fallen short of that. Unfortunately, any condition that shows signs or symptoms prior to the policy start or during the policy waiting periods, is not covered by the policy. The Accident and Illness policy waiting periods are 3-days for Accidents, 14-days for Illnesses, and 6 months for Cruciate Ligament events. These waiting periods start from the effective date of the policy. If the condition is not coverable, then the diagnostics and treatments are not covered for that condition. There’s also a bilateral conditions clause on our Accident and Illness policy. Unfortunately, this means if there are signs or symptoms of the condition on one leg prior to the policy start or during the policy waiting periods, then neither leg would be covered by the policy for that condition, as pets tend to compensate with their other leg. You can find this information in your account on our website under Documents and Forms. You’re welcome to reach out to us if we can be of assistance. We hope you have a better rest of your day. - PF

I have to fight for almost all of my claims that i submit. Constantly proving what conditions my dog has and what were the treatments. Quick example: took dog to urgent care because she appeared to have hearing loss as she was battling ear infection. They denied due to it being pre existing condition. When i appeal the reaponse time is nearly 3 months. So yeah they quick to take their money from me for premium but very slow and rejective to pay for medical needs. I am going to shop for another company- this is such a hastle and nearly not worth the reimbursement.

Helpful Report

Hi Kay-Lynn, thanks for your time and feedback. We’re sad to hear you’re looking elsewhere for your pet’s insurance. Premium increases happen at your renewal or your anniversary date with us. That’s when we consider your pet to be a year older. The premium at renewal is not based on the claims you’ve submitted, but it is based on your pet’s age, breed, and the cost of veterinary care in your local zip code area. As pets age, their odds of needing medical care increase, as do the odds this care will be more expensive. Premium changes occur annually at renewal to balance these age-related health risks with rising medical care needs. We send a Renewal Packet via email prior to the renewal to advise of the upcoming renewal premium. Policyholders can review options to reduce their premium by logging into their account on our website at www.petsbest.com and going to the Benefits button under their pet’s name. We’d be happy to go over the options to reduce your premium with you. You can contact our Customer Care Team by calling (877) 738-7237. Our phone hours are Monday through Friday from 6:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. MDT and Saturday from 6:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. MDT.

1st 2 claims were either denied or limited amount paid because my vet charges puppy packages and not by individual vaccines and wellness. Unable to be transferred to a supervisor. Must have callback. Called yesterday and was advised would review partial claim paid and less than 12 hours later get a denial for the 2nd claim with the same problem. Not worth the headache!

Hi Carlos, thank you for your time and feedback. We called and left you a voice message today. Unfortunately, Policyholders can only add supplemental benefits (e.g., Office Visits/Exam Fees, Take Home Prescriptions, or Rehab/Acupuncture/Chiropractic) within the first 30 days of the policy. After the first 30 days of the policy, the Policyholder would have to re-write the policy to add supplemental benefits. This would mean canceling the existing policy and starting a new one. On a re-written policy, there would be a new start date for the new policy, and new waiting periods, which would be 3-days for Accidents, 14-days for Illnesses, and 6 months for Cruciate Ligament Events.

Keep in mind all Accident and Illness policies have a Policyholder chosen per pet co-pay and deductible that must be met before reimbursing on eligible claims. Our Wellness Endorsements are a set schedule of benefits that are not subject to a deductible or co-pay. Each line item on the schedule is the maximum the policy will pay for that line item for your pet in a policy year. Unfortunately, your pet may use up the benefits quickly depending on what your veterinarian charges for their services. To keep the additional premium for the Wellness Endorsements reasonable for our Policyholders, they are not designed to fully cover all your wellness needs, but to assist you with the financial burden of your pet’s annual wellness care by providing some reimbursement of what you paid to your veterinarian for their services. You can find your Policy Documents and Wellness Schedule under Documents and Forms in your account on our website. We’d be happy to go over your claims and coverage with you. You can contact our Customer Care Team by calling (877) 738-7237. Our phone hours are Monday through Friday from 6:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. MDT and Saturday from 6:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. MDT.

Horrible and nasty customer service. Can never speak to a supervisor, they tell you to wait for a call back that never comes. Company is a joke.
