“It just doesn’t really seem worth it. Kind of like human insurance. It’s pretty expensive to include a wellness visit to the insurance, which I believe should already be included, or the price increase shouldn’t be as much as it is at least. I suppose it’s a good “just in case,” and it could really help for a serious injury or illness (that they didn’t already have an issue with, of course). I’m really going to have to weigh out the pros and cons of keeping this insurance for my pets and the value it really provides…so far it doesn’t feel like much value at the moment.”

Hi Machelle, thanks for your time and feedback. Unfortunately, any condition that shows signs or symptoms prior to the policy start date 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. You can find your Policy Information under Documents and Forms in your account on our website. Anytime a Policyholder is in dispute of a claim that has been denied as a pre-existing condition and wants us to review their claim further, the Policyholder can submit an Appeal Form with supporting documentation to us. Appeals are processed within 90 days currently. If you’d like us to send you an Appeal Form for a claim, you’re welcome to contact our Customer Care Team by calling (877) 738-7237.

“Up until recently, the coverage was great. However, my pup had a ear/skin infection claim denied after it sat in processing well over 30 days. Disputing and hopefully will be corrected, but frustrating nonetheless. The claims processing speed is very slow. Expect 2-4 weeks regularly. Customer service is also very slow and vague. If you don't mind waiting a couple weeks or more, and resubmitting claims every now and again, they will eventually get paid/reimbursed.”

Hi William, thanks for your time and feedback. We regret to hear that you will shopping for another pet insurance provider. 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 Wellness Schedule under Documents and Forms in your account on our website. If you’d like, we’d be happy to go over your claims and coverage concerns with you.

I submitted everything that I was given (it was a torn paw pad plus follow up visit), nothing too major… But still no reimbursement.
