submitted my invoices over 2 weeks ago and have not heard from anyone. My dog is only one year old and I am paying over $50 a month just for yearly check ups. I am not impressed.

Hi Janet, thanks for reaching out to us. Each of our wellness options are an add-on endorsement that Policyholders can choose to add to their Accident and Illness policy for an additional premium. 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’re received. Wellness claims are processed within 18 days currently. Please keep an eye on your emails, as we send the Explanation of Benefits via email once the claim has completed processing. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and appreciate your patience. We hope you have a great rest of your day. – PF

Paying around $86/month. Virtually no preventative care is covered. Complete waste of money.

Hi Danielle, thanks for your time and feedback. 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. You can review the options to reduce your premium by logging into your account on our website and going to the Benefits button under your pet’s name. 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. Policyholders can request to change or remove the wellness endorsement within 30 days prior to their renewal (anniversary date with us) for the effective date of their renewal, or within 30 days after their renewal for the effective date of their renewal, as long as they haven’t taken their pet to the veterinarian from their renewal date to the date they make the request. We’d be happy to go over your claims and policy 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. MT and Saturday from 6:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. MT. Another available option is to chat with an agent by logging into our website at www.petsbest.com and clicking on the blue speaking icon.

We look forward to hearing from you if we can be of assistance and hope you have a great rest of your day. – PF

I’m not happy why do we have to pay a copay on top of the deductible

Hi Miriam, thanks for your time and feedback. Our newer Accident and Illness policies are Annual policies that have a Policyholder chosen Co-pay, Deductible and Limit. 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. Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee specific claims outcomes, or the payment of a claim, until all information has been received and reviewed.

Since Nov of last year, one of my claim requests remained open until this week. There was no timely effort on Pet Health Insurance but when you did and prompt action was taken the claim remained day after day with dozens of calls seeking assistance. The personnel called were less than helpful except for one lady named Linda. She spotted a problem with the sourcing of your information. Once she did that, I felt things would move fast but nothing.

While I have been with Pets Best for awhile now, I must say that their costs have risen expedentially and it takes way too long for claims to be processed. I have done research with other providers and when my insurance renews this year and I no longer need to have the well care - I will be switching.

Took forever to get my claim processed. Almost 2 months. Then I found out you cap all prices at a very low amount. I mean who pays 30 dollars for a annual heartworm shot and that I guess is the max you pay. Plus you add a copay. I don't know if I will keep this. Might be better just to open a savings account in my dogs name.

I had 2 claims they finally said they were paying me for Sadie but they still haven't paid for Huckleberry and they were both on Feb. 9. So I am not a very happy customer at this point. It should not take this long. That's why I pay for pet insurance

I really don't see much reimbursement for wellness medications like heartguard and nexgard. These are necessary meds for dogs and they cover only a fraction. It's late enough in my dog's life that it would work against me to switch but I don't recommend this company if you're looking to get a reasonable value out of your policy. The reimbursement scale is pretty pathetic.

Hi Laura, thanks for your time and feedback. 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. Policyholders can request to change or remove the wellness endorsement within 30 days prior to their renewal (anniversary date with us) for the effective date of their renewal, or within 30 days after their renewal for the effective date of their renewal, as long as they haven’t taken their pet to the veterinarian from their renewal date to the date they make the request. 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. MT and Saturday from 6:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. MT. Another available option is to chat with an agent by logging into our website at www.petsbest.com and clicking on the blue speaking icon. Our chat hours are Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. MT and Saturday from 7:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. MT. We look forward to hearing from you if we can be of assistance and hope you have a great rest of your day. – PF

We’ve had this insurance for almost 4 years and in the beginning it was good, but now…not so much! I don’t submit claims often, but when I do, I get the same response on the EOB’s that the maximum wellness amount has been met! I don’t understand, so I am canceling and starting a pet savings account with the premiums!

We have the insurance for our two dogs. Barely any costs are covered. I would not recommend to any owner.

Hi Amanda, thanks for your time and feedback. Our Wellness Endorsements are a set schedule of benefits that are not subject to a deductible or co-pay.

You can find your Wellness Schedule under Documents and Forms in your account on our website. 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. 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.
