    Was a loyal customer for 5+ years, with minimal claims. Paid $100 in bills monthly, on time. I sent an inquiry regarding cancellation due to budget issues, then changed my mind and sent a note stating so. They canceled me anyway. And even though I instantly responded to that as well, they refuse to reinstate my account. "London" was on vacation for 2 weeks, didn't get my reply, and therefore, too bad, so sad, go find another company. (She was seriously SO RUDE. In her case, the customer is always WRONG.) For whatever reason, they have zero interest in customer retention, and we live at the mercy of "London" and her vacation schedule. Avoid. Seriously. Go with someone with decent customer service.

    I am so happy we have Healthy Paws. We have learned as new pet parents that vet visits and emergency situations are extremely costly. Luna is our first dog, she is 1yr & 10 months old. She is like our little girl. A few weeks ago she was not feeling well. She had ingested an object and an emergency surgery was imminent. She ended up getting an endoscopy and has recovered amazingly well! I was impressed by the support, follow up, and reimbursement from Healthy Paws. We got Healthy Paws as soon as we got Luna and it was a great decision. If you are thinking about it - get it, it's worth it!

    I got a puppy from a shelter in April 2021 and I wanted pet insurance in case of an emergency. I didn’t know what to get so I did research and heard a lot of good things about Healthy Paws. I am so glad I went with them, our dog has had surgery twice since we’ve had her and Healthy Paws has covered 90%! These are not surgeries I could normally afford without the insurance. So much is covered under the plans and we have had such a great experience, the pay out happens quickly too so you can be sure you’ll be reimbursed in a timely matter. For both surgeries the money was In my account in a few days! If you’re getting a puppy, especially a high energy herding breed or any working/sport breed I think Healthy Paws Pet Insurance is a must!

    Healthy Paws has been a lifesaver for me many times over the years, but my most recent experience may be the most amazing. My old-lady dog made a trip to urgent care, our vet and then to the ER vet hospital, where she spent 4 days.

    I got my puppy rescue terrier/chihuahua in 2016 and started paying for pet insurance because there was a lot of scary foot traffic in my busy neighborhood. I paid a reasonable cost, starting at something like $19/month and going up to $35/month as my dog got older. Fast forward to 2021, and my dog uncharacteristically started peeing in the house. (We guessed maybe it was a UTI.) I took her to the vet and found out it was a kidney stone, and that it was too big for her to pass. She needed surgery. The total surgery cost something like $2500, but Healthy Paws reimbursed me. This was a huuuge help -- it would have been a huge blow to my finances to have to pay for it all out of pocket. Healthy Paws is communicative and their interface is incredibly easy. So thankful that I decided to get Healthy Paws so many years ago!

    I have 2 Rottie girls, mother and daughter. I first insured my previous dogs with Healthy Paws, Boxers, and was very happy with my coverage as Pippi had multiple claims. That was over 5 yrs ago. I was satisfied with their coverage and so covered my next dogs with Healthy Paws. I've had multiple major claims for my Rotties... Nadja, with BOTH cruciate ligament surgeries a year apart, and my (at that time 10 month old) puppy Jette being diagnosed with pyometra after her first heat. Unheard of? I did get a second opinion. 2 wks after her emergency surgery she hemorrhaged. Emergency. Intensive care. Healthy Paws came through. MAJOR expense. Around $15,000 total costs, a fair amount out of pocket, but I seriously could not have taken care of my girls without Healthy Paws. (I have $200 deductible and 80% of allowable for each dog) EASY to submit claims online, usually deposited in my checking account within days.

    This is the best company I have ever had for my pet insurance. Unlike other companies I have dealt with, this company pays out your claims promptly and without endless excuses to reduce the amount of the payments. When you sign up for a 10 percent deductible, you get back a full 90% of your vet fees. Other companies I have dealt with manage to come up with various exclusions bringing down their claim payments to only around 50% on a 90% plan. In fact, I recently had vet bills of over $30,000 dollars for my two sick dogs, one receiving cancer treatments and the other needing major knee surgery. Healthy Paws paid me the full 90% of some very expensive claims. They even sent an email asking how my dog was doing after the knee surgery. You can’t buy better pet insurance than this. I’ll stick with Healthy Paws for all my future pet insurance needs. You should give them a try.

    Healthy Paws has exceeded our expectations in every way. We decided to get pet insurance for our bernedoodle puppy, who is now only 3 years old. Despite a perfect puppyhood, she ruptured the dog equivalent of our ACL in the spring and required surgery and physical therapy to repair it. Then just a few weeks ago, for no apparent reason, she became ill and required a trip to the nearby emergency vet. We were told she had experienced a toxin to her liver. That ultimately entailed a stay at the incredible CSU Veterinary Hospital in Northern Colorado. It was devastating to imagine losing such an important and much-loved part of our family, and fortunately thanks to Healthy Paws, the financial impact did not have to determine whether or not we could keep her and enjoy many years ahead together. We were able to provide her the care she needed to recover and is back to romping and cuddling. Both of these were completely unforeseen accidents in an otherwise super healthy dog. Again, thanks again, Healthy Paws!!

    Healthy Paws isn't the first pet insurance I've had over the years, but it is the only one for my dogs now and in the future. My last pet insurance stopped paying for cancer treatments for my beloved dog halfway through the protocol because the contract renewed and the cancer was now considered a pre-existing condition. I was dumbfounded. We continued the protocol out of pocket and it gave us an extra year with her, but I was done with that particular type of business practice.

    When I called Healthy Paws and explained the situation I never wanted to repeat, I believe they were also dumbfounded. I signed up my dogs and have never looked back. I no longer wait months for reimbursement, and submitting a claim is as easy as taking a photo of the bill on their app and pushing send. There are no forms. And unlike some other companies, they base their payment on what your vet charges -- not on what they believe the vet should charge. I couldn't be happier with Healthy Paws. Insurance is something I never want to have to use for my best friends, but if I do, I have total confidence that Healthy Paws will be right there to help pay for the reason. Peace of mind is worth a lot.

    Yes, they used to cover prescription meds, but lately I have been having a horrendous time with this company. Look at their records. You will see that recently they have been fined millions of dollars for multiple violations. Lately they constantly ask for med records, soap notes and teeth diagrams. Recently one of my dogs had several extractions, one of her teeth had a hole in it. My Vet stated that they did not know why this happens to small dogs. And she had peri dental disease. My policy states that DENTAL DISEASE is covered. Her bill was well over $1000. All I asked for was the 2 prescriptions be covered ($49 X 90% = $44.10.) They stated that dental is not covered and so the prescriptions were not covered. WELL .... THEN DON'T STATE THAT YOU COVER PRESCRIPTIONS.

    After going back and forth about coverage for the 2 prescriptions, I gave up. And after going back and forth, I got a notification that the premium would double. The bulk of our vet expenses are for wellness and dental. Healthy Paws does not cover either. So between the healthy paws premium and dental/wellness, we are spending about $8000.00/year. Remove healthy paws premiums we will save $4800/year. I've tried to find a department that governs pet insurance with zero luck. Washington referred me to VA who referred me to a home owners claim?? I've canceled this scam and am putting the premium into a savings for our dog's medical. I am looking into other insurances, but don't think I'll purchase any. Healthy paws has made it clear that pet insurance is a scam due to high premiums and extremely poor coverage, if you can even call it coverage. Sounds more like highway robbery. This was a learning experience in whether or not to enroll dogs in pet insurance. I have learned not to do it.

We use a pet's medical records and notes written by the attending veterinarian to determine if there are any pre-existing conditions that would keep us from approving a claim. Your pet's procedure and related medications have been covered. You should receive your explanation of benefits in the next 24-48 hours. Give your babies hugs from us.

    Our 1 year old cat was having urinary issues and eventually was hospitalized because of it. It was really tough having him in the hospital for so long; our family wasn't whole! While dealing with the particulars for our claim, we received a separate email from Healthy Paws asking how our cat was doing. There was no business, no requests for additional documentation, just a check-in to make sure we're doing okay and that our cat was doing okay. I was shocked to receive an email like that! Shocked, but also knew we were in good hands with this insurance company.

    When I got my puppy I decided to get pet insurance through Healthy Paws because you never know what might happen with a young puppy! I wanted some coverage in case of a major problem that might be beyond the expected issues and expenses. I looked into several insurances and I'm so glad I went with them in the end! At only 7 months old my puppy sadly ended up developing a crippling shoulder problem which could only be fixed by a very expensive surgery. We had chosen a plan with a higher yearly deductible and 90% coverage to applicable issues...I had reached the deductible with applicable vet expenses before the surgery and they truly did cover 90% of the cost - and they repaid us direct deposit in a very short time! It was a tremendous help for our family, especially during such a stressful time.

    Although we have put a good amount of money into veterinary care for our puppy it's nothing compared to what it would have been if we didn't have this pet insurance. I highly recommend them, especially for young puppies just starting out.

Paisley is now is receiving the treatment she needed, and we have all the hope she will survive and make full recovery....Why is Healthy Paws the best? Cause going through this drama we NEVER, EVER needed to worry will our insurance cover it. NEVER, EVER worry if there some secret loophole. NEVER needed to be forced to choose between paying bills or saving our furry family member. We have submitted our medical bills online, and received the reimbursements in a week. Simple as that. Healthy Paws is the BEST insurance EVER!

    I've had Healthy Paws for 3 of my dogs and their customer service has been outstanding. Premiums aren't cheap but neither are the vet bills. It's good to know that when something happens to my dogs, I won't be stressed over the bills. Having to decide if it's financially feasible to get your dog the care it needs is a position that my pet insurance has eliminated.

So I was paying and just now they had the face to charge my card again and probably if that medical check is necessary for 4 years I paid for nothing because apparently I am not even legitimate.

I was so happy that Healthy Paws was so easy to work with. The invoices were easy to update to their system, they were prompt in their replies and prompt in letting me know that our claims had been paid.

    Healthy Paws Pet Insurance has been great. I recently had to submit the largest claim that I ever had to submit for my dog (he’s almost 6 years old). He needed spinal surgery for a herniated disc. The process of submitting claims is easy and the reimbursement was already being processed and received within a matter of days. Their customer service is great as well. I even received an email asking how my dog was doing. A couple of things that might make the insurance even better is allowing more options for deductible and reimbursement amount and also covering exam fees. I’m currently at a $250 deductible for 80% reimbursement but at $93 a month, it would help if at least exam fees were covered as well and/or a 90% reimbursement. Overall, having this insurance saved me when I needed it. Though, I may have spent a lot over the years to have it, it helped me avoid having to pay the full bill of $7600, unexpectedly for surgery and hospitalization/medications/tests for my dog.

    Getting a pet dog is a big decision - unlike a human baby, a dog will be depending on you for food, water, and care for their whole lives! The biggest obstacle between a relationship between human and dog is most can't speak to animals and thus it's always a guessing game whenever our beloved pets don't feel well.

    Selecting an insurance carrier took a lot of research as we all want the perfect balance between a dependable policy and affordable premiums. I've never got pet insurance for one of my animals before so you really need to rely on other people to get a possible policy that you may never use. We decided on a policy to cover the expensive procedures, like surgery, not for wellness exams which everyone needs to pay for anyways if you own a pet. So we decided on Healthy Paws based on the excellent reviews we read about, so we settled on the 80/20 policy - we pay 20%/Insurance pays 80%. We decided to take out policies for both our dogs as soon as they were puppies and 5 years deep in both policies, we never really used it. But boy, this was the best decision we would ever make.

    Fast forward to 2021, one of our precious dogs herniated an intervertebral disk in his spine and lost use of his hind legs. Emergency surgery was needed and we knew it wouldn't be cheap. However, we were able to feel rest assured that our policy covered this procedure and within 2 weeks of the procedure, our check for 80% of the procedure was in the mail! Painless and so very efficient, no questions asked, just everything was easy and perfect! Highly recommend Healthy Paws!

I just found out she has elbow dysplasia in both front legs and had a CT scan last week, so may be looking at more surgery.

    Through it all, Healthy Paws has been there answering my questions and enabling me to make these treatment decisions without having to balk over the cost. They have excellent and responsive customer service who really care, The claim submission is so quick and painless via the app (taking a photo of your invoice as you leave the vet and uploading it directly) and the claim processing has been unbelievably quick with direct deposit the following day. I have nothing but good things to say about this company and the people. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart!

    I took my dog Sophie to see her Vet for a Medical issue she was having (for which I had insurance with Healthy Paws Pet Insurance LLC) and this was supposed to be covered on June 13th/14th 2021...and put in a claim for reimbursement....and I have called and emailed for status numerous times and as of today (08/23/21) I have not received my reimbursement!! At first, they said they sent a check out...but I did not get anything....They told me that they will cancel the first check and send a new one...still nothing. Then I find out that they charged me two Annual Deductibles and denied the portion for the medicine...then they told me that they will fix it and send me the correct payment and that they would call me back...still nothing and no call backs!!!! I paid them for coverage that they have not taken care of...They lied about what they cover and have not met their end of the agreement for coverage, or reimbursed within the specified and allotted and quoted timeframe!

    Out of the $400 that I paid...they did not cover the Vet's portion for the exam...They calculated 10% that I need to pay out of pocket first for the total bill...and then deducted the $250 annual deduction - which means that they made me pay 10% of the deductible that I had to pay out of my own pocket first....of MY OWN DEDUCTIBLE!!! WHAT???!! - which then left a very small amount that they had to pay me back....and I still have not received my reimbursement!!! Save your money!!

    Horrible waste of time and money. I’m pretty sure Healthy Paws has already somehow erased my first review so here we go again trying to get the truth out about this company. I’m still in the process of trying to get my three policies canceled which I’ve requested three times now. I pay $114 a month for three pets to be covered fully. I completely understand not covering the examination fees. It says it right in the policy but it also says that you guys cover x-rays.

    My veterinarian sent in two receipts for two different x-rays averaging around $400 A piece. Your claims department is saying that it isn’t submitted correctly and that we need to file an appeal on the first one to even be able to submit the second one so this place is so hard to deal with that I literally paid more in insurance than the actual x-rays would’ve cost in the first place. So once again just a horrible waste of my time that I’m still waiting to be canceled. Buyer beware. Just get insurance from a place that you can actually go and talk to someone a brick and mortar not this online scam.

Finally and unfortunately my dog had something in his stomach we need to take multiple x-rays. From everything I read under your policy x-rays are covered under the insurance. But when my vet send you the claim you tell me none of the claim can be claimed. But I thought you covered x-rays. Now you’re trying to put me through this hell of appeal appeal process just to be able to make a claim.

    In the long run all the money that you guys have stolen from me for the last few months could’ve paid for all of this but instead I paid you for having insurance and get nothing from it. Now I’m trying to cancel my policies and it seems like you guys just keep ignoring me. Buyer beware.

    “Disbelief” is the only word that comes to mind when reading the poor reviews for Healthy Paws on this website. First, in response to the people complaining about increases in cost: it is common practice for insurance premiums to be adjusted based on the total amount of money the company spends on all claims within a given year. This is not specific to Healthy Paws; they are not out to get you.

    Second, after much research, I chose Healthy Paws because I wanted to make sure that I was covered in case in the future, my dog needed some long-term and costly treatment, e.g., for reoccurring cancer. Healthy Paws is one of the few (or maybe only?) pet insurance companies that do not place a lifetime cap on any illness. In fact, there’s no yearly cap either. This means that they will continue paying for your pet’s treatment regardless of how much money they’ve already spent on that particular issue throughout the pet’s lifetime. As inhumane as it may sound, this is NOT true of MOST companies. Many insurance companies will not cover cancer that has reoccurred, or will only pay X amount of dollars towards the treatment of that particular type of cancer. I encourage everyone to look into this before choosing an insurance company.

    That said, Healthy Paws DOES NOT cover routine vet care or any vet appointments, and they are up front about it. But really those things were, and still are, the least of my worries. Routine care you can plan for. And vet appointments, even with top specialists, are typically a one time thing (per illness) and a couple hundred dollars max. On the other hand, a single emergency surgery will be several thousand dollars, in addition to the dog-knows-how-much the diagnostic testing costs.

    Now, third, my experience with this company has been nothing but WONDERFUL. I never EVER (ever ever) anticipated using my insurance plan as much as we have. I adopted my dog in 2017 at 2 years of age with no preexisting health conditions. In less than 2 years she ended up in the doggy ER twice: first time she broke her toe while running (freak accident), second time for multiple dog bites to the back of the head. Both times all I had to do was tell the front desk staff that we have pet insurance and fill out the form they gave me. Within a day or so I got an e-mail confirming the claim and then within 1-2 weeks I was reimbursed.

    But that’s the small stuff. My dog’s body hates her. If she doesn’t do physical therapy consistently, she limps on her right front limb. Nothing I do at home compares to whatever magic they do at the PT place she goes to. Healthy Paws has been paying for her twice weekly PT sessions for over TWO YEARS now. But wait, there’s more.

    Despite all this PT, about 1.5 years ago we found out she has a CCL tear (the doggy equivalent of an ACL tear in humans) and needed TPLO surgery. A week or so before her scheduled surgery my dog had a horrifying event in the middle of the night — to us it appeared to be something like a seizure but we later found out it was likely either a small stroke or something called a vestibular event. Long story short, we (well, the neurologist) had a just about 2 weeks to figure out what was going on so that she could be cleared for TPLO/knee surgery. This involved lots of bloodwork, sedation, an EKG, abdominal ultrasound, some brain monitoring thing, fluid to be pulled & tested from her spine, and most costly, a brain MRI (~$3.5k).

    By the time I paid for everything up to the brain MRI, my credit card was almost maxed out. And since (thankfully) nothing notable showed up on any of those exams, she was still scheduled for TPLO surgery (~$5k) in less than one week. Upon panicking, a kind staff member at the animal hospital told me about something called a Direct Pay, in which the insurance company pays the hospital directly rather than reimbursing the client at a later time. So I called Healthy Paws to inquire about a Direct Pay for both the MRI and TPLO surgery. I’d called them on a Thursday; my dog’s MRI was scheduled for that following Monday and her TPLO two days after on Wednesday. I had a couple of back & forth calls with Healthy Paws over the weekend and by Monday, her MRI was paid for. They also agreed to pay, and subsequently did pay, for her TPLO that same week.

    There’s still more: of course, a year or so after she recovered from TPLO surgery, she started puking all over the place, acting funny, etc. Long story short, over several months more and more costly tests followed, including an endoscopy and cystoscopy. This required general anesthesia and biopsies were taken during each. Every single thing that she had done, I got reimbursed for within a couple weeks max. No questions asked. We can go to any facility and see any doctor we choose and as long as the appropriate medical records are sent to them, Healthy Paws pays the claims.

    I am writing this review now because last week, my pup had TPLO surgery on her other knee and again, Healthy Paws did a Direct Pay for us. At this time I knew the drill and it took nothing more than a couple e-mails. They even e-mailed us to check on her a couple days later — which is how I got the idea to write this review. I still simply can’t believe all the bad reviews/ratings on this website. I’m not saying there’s foul play or anything, but my experience with Healthy Paws has just been SO different and I am SO thankful that I signed up with them.

The website is user friendly and the reimbursements are prompt and painless.

    The only issue we had was in uploading supplemental medical record files when they were requested. HealthyPaws said we could email them but then didn't acknowledge receiving them until we uploaded them a very specific way on our third attempt. This held up our initial reimbursement and was frustrating but we ultimately got past it. Most importantly though, our puppy Louie had a serious health scare at 7 months and Healthy Paws was there for us so we're very grateful and will continue using them.

    I was a customer for 5+ years and purchased policies for several pets. As others have said, their service is modern, fast, and easy to use. I was initially impressed and glad to have the peace of mind. Unfortunately, it seems that their approach is to hook you and then go after your wallet as aggressively as they possibly can. The prices they offer to new customers are very attractive. However, their premiums consistently increase 30-50% every year, so factor that into your decision when you sign up.

    They also play games to reduce reimbursements. For example, their "deductible" is highly misleading. Unlike a standard insurance deductible that is based on all eligible expenses incurred, they take an unusual approach and only apply their copay % amount. (Let's say you select their 80% reimbursement / $500 deductible option... they will pay nothing until you exceed $625 in eligible expenses... which I am pretty sure most people would call a $625 deductible.) Lost my trust and lost my business.

It was super easy to start my claim… All I had to do was upload my invoice from the hospital. They processed my claim in 2 days and I received my reimbursement check 3 days later. They even checked in afterward to see how my puppy was doing! I couldn’t be happier.

    Healthy Paws denied a claim and an appeal for medication for our pup's diarrhea claiming it is a pre existing condition. Regardless of the cause they are denying any claim regarding diarrhea so if your dog has a chronic condition or just gets into something they weren't supposed to they will deny the claim due to the one episode of vomiting. I'm assuming they will now deny any issue that ever comes up even if years later involving the GI tract so be aware of how they operate and how aggressively they try to deny claims.

    I have had Healthy Paws Pet Insurance for years and have been satisfied until this year. Overall it has been easy to file claims and they pay within a couple of weeks. This year the company has definitely changed! They would not pay some claims without our pets complete medical records. This is after they have been paying for these pets for years. The worst issue is the huge increase in premiums this year. Two of our dog policies went up 50-60%. That is a completely unacceptable price increase. I feel there should be a law against this type of price gouging! I talked with the company and was given some excuse about pet claims in Missouri being really high last year. I don't buy the excuse! I had to decrease my coverage and am currently shopping for more affordable insurance. Warning, do not get Healthy Paws Pet Insurance!!!

    Premiums are high and constantly increasing even though you may never have a claim. When you make a claim they constantly present obstacles. For instance, I gave them all the medical information they requested and then they delayed about a week and asked me for the same information again and again. They appear to use stall tactics not to pay claims. When I call their claims number I have to wait on the line for an enormous amount of time. They answer the phone fast when you call about making a premium payment or when you are inquiring about taking out a policy with them. In my experience with Healthy Paws Pet Insurance they only want to take money in but they provide little to no claims service. Do yourself a favor and find pet insurance elsewhere with a company that has a good claims reputation. I would give them a zero star rating.

    I chose this company based on word-of-mouth and due to them not having yearly or lifetime payout caps. After only two years, my healthy dog (minus some minor allergy issues) has seen an increase in the monthly premium amount by more than 50%! In two years! When I contacted the company I was told that this is because they are paying out more in claims than they are collecting in premiums in my area/state. Basically, my premiums are going up because of other people’s animals. From year one to year two there was a ~14% increase. From year two to year three, the increase was just under 40%!

    While I can understand there being some increase each year, 40% in one year is ridiculous. I doubt I will keep my policy for another year. While the claims process is relatively easy and the get your reimbursement to you in a timely manner, Be Aware that your monthly premiums will Absolutely Increase Every Year. I am a very disappointed customer.

    My pet insurance premium went up 30% when my pup hit 7 and then another 50% when my pup hit 8. So if you buy their pet insurance, you can expect double digit increases when your pet hits senior age. Healthy Paws will tell you premium increases of any amount is within their legal right, that your state approved the increase, that they are just doing it cover their increasing costs. The sleazy part of pet insurance is that the consumer can't just switch companies because future insurance won't cover preexisting conditions, so I am stuck with the double digit increases despite how unfair it is. I regret buying with Healthy Paws - you will get no sympathy when you try to explain the havoc this will wreak on your budget.

    I had my two dogs covered through Healthy Paws insurance. I rescued both my dogs, so their histories were a bit unclear. Both dogs got full physicals from our vet after we adopted them. I submitted a claim for my 2 year old dog which healthy paws refused to cover medical tests because they claimed they were due to a pre-existing condition. My husband and I understood that and decided when we adopted our puppy this year, we would have him covered through Health Paws as well.

    We have been fighting with Healthy Paws to get a claim covered, he ate a stick in our yard and the vet was concerned it caused a blockage. He needed x-rays and medication but recovered well. Healthy Paws refused to cover the incident because we didn't have enough medical records for him. The records we sent from the shelter we adopted him from plus the records and notes from our vet weren't enough. I will never recommend Healthy Paws to anyone, they do what they can to avoid paying out claims for the few things they do actually cover. It is definitely not worth it!

    In a little more than 2 years, my cat's insurance premiums increased 43%. In a little more than 5 years, my premiums for my 3 dogs increased 126%, 136%, and 165%, respectively. When your pets are young and first enrolled, they do not fully inform you of how they will increase your premiums as your dogs age and claims add up. The increase of 136% was not due to any claims, just the passage of time. I do not recommend Healthy Paws, to which I now feel locked in because of the ages of my dogs. Very frustrating. It is not the security I thought I would be receiving.

    Healthy Paws Insuranse is simply rip off! Stay away. The premiums for my healthy young dog went from $26 to $49. And I never once had a claim. The explanation I got from them?! “We count the whole amount of reimbursed claims and divide them across the board. So your state is high claims state. That why your premiums went up” WHAT!? I canceled the insurance. The money I spent could have been put aside for my dog elderly years. I read other reviews, other clients had the same complaint.

It's an excuse, it's robbery, it's disgusting. Aside from the unacceptable increases in the last 2 years, I have not had a problem with them in regards to coverage, customer service is always great (except when asking for them to lower the premium)... Sadly enough I used to tell everyone to sign up with Healthy Paws.

    The unpredictability in the random increases gives you an uneasy feeling that this company is just snaking people. Moreover, they do gradual increases in the beginning making you feel as though they will continue to be affordable for the remaining of your pets life. THEN they just start hitting you hard, leaving you with making the decision to cancel the policy and go somewhere else. The problem with that is that your pets preexisting conditions won't be covered by the new insurance. Devil face with a bunny mask.

    My rates went up after I submitted 5 claims (didn’t even have the insurance for a year). After a major surgery on my pet’s leg, at day 10 they suddenly lost my paperwork and I had to start all over again and wait another 2 weeks to see what they’d pay. They take your percentage out of your deductible so in the end, you’re really paying more (20% with $250 deductible adds $50) of a deductible than you think.

    Healthy Paws Pet Insurance has been one of the greatest investments I have made for my 4 dogs. Without the policies, I would not have been able to afford the best care possible for them. From something minor, such as an ear infection, to a major surgery of a total hip replacement, Healthy Paws has allowed my dogs to live happy and healthy. Yes. The premiums increase every year. But that is to be expected, as premiums for human health insurance typically increase every year. Some years, the increase is more than expected, but even with the large increase, I had peace of mind knowing that had any medical scenario occurred, I could have my dog treated without the guilt of financial devastation.

    My older German Shepherd (8 years of age) was diagnosed with severe hip dysplasia. Right in the policy documents, it clearly states that the pet must be enrolled in a policy prior to 6 years of age and not be diagnosed within a 1 year waiting period from enrollment date. She was diagnosed 16 months after enrollment and met the age requirement (enrolled at 5 years of age). This past year, she was showing severe lameness and pain in her hips. On her x-rays, the hip dysplasia had caused a fracture in her right hip. The best option was a total hip replacement.

    The surgery was performed, I paid out of pocket (put on an empty credit card), and Healthy Paws started processing the quite large invoice (almost 5 figures). Yes. It took 3 weeks to process (would have probably been quicker had it not been over the holidays), but throughout the whole process, the representatives were nothing but reassuring and friendly. Healthy Paws has covered 90% of the surgery (as per my policy selection), in which I am forever grateful for this company. Had I not had insurance, or even had a different company, my dog would most likely be living out the last years of her life (which the vet estimated about 1 year in the condition of this hip) in complete and utter pain. I will never enroll any of my future pets with any other pet insurance company after this experience.

    Don't waste your time or money. They denied my claim on my kitten because previously he had a hairball when he was smaller and because I used words like "hacking" and "breathing weird" they said he had pre signup symptoms. Per my vet and medical records my cat was diagnosed and treated for a hairball. He was not diagnosed with or had problems with asthma until 8 months later when he was diagnosed with kitty asthma. He obviously was breathing weird because he was trying to cough it up. Much different than how he is now. They obviously are just going to search for a reason to not help than help. Spread the word and avoid Healthy Paws if you want my advice! Btw, I'm a nurse, the breathing described and discussed with my vet were very different. I was only panicked with the hairball because unfortunately a couple months before my cat suddenly died.

    Stay Away! We got Healthy Paw Pet Insurance for our dog a few weeks ago. After two weeks my dog got a laceration on her ears that must have happened during the night and needed stitches. We went to the vet and they had to do surgery the next day. After filing the claim with them, they denied it calling it a preexisting condition. (The injury happened during the night or early morning our waiting time was over.) I understand a waiting period so people don't get insurance for a sick dog after the fact but this not ok. This company is not honest. I get insurance for my dog and get stuck with paying the premium and the $900? Not only that, they also do not count the money I already spent toward a deductible. This company is a scam.

    The first claim I made was a disaster! After sending in ALL requested information, I received requests for MORE information! And, the company couldn't/wouldn't tell me WHAT information they still needed. We went back and forth...them. We need more information... (Too during this time, I kept receiving messages they were working on my "claim". I have 2 claims in to them. When I asked which claim, they couldn't/wouldn't tell me.) M. What do you need?... Them. We need more info... Me. What do you need/be specific...etc. So, I called their customer service. The clerk had a hard time finding any of my info. When she located it I told her I just needed to know what info they still needed. She said it looked like they had everything they needed. But 2 weeks later I was still only getting messages they needed more information... No closure on the claim!

    So, I called again and wasted another half hr. dealing with this issue. This time I did speak with a supervisor. She apologized for all my frustration. When I asked her when she thought the claim would be complete, she stated THIS Afternoon!! Since their behavior has been typical of "scammers", I did warn her I would be going to another provider if there wasn't complete closure on both claims within the next 3 days. Too, I fully intend to pursue this through the FBI due to the legalities involved. And, I plan to warn as many as possible through social media, if the claims are not fulfilled promptly. Will let you know ASAP of any further developments. (ie. whether or not the supervisor kept her word.)

It was not denied after the date so fully their mistake. I never even used the insurance, just paid and they refused to reinstate it. The first customer service rep was horribly rude, the second one flat out lied, the third was good and said I could re-enroll, but if I ever needed to file a claim I feel like I would be treated wrong again by customer service so I will not re-enroll with them.

    Every single time that I submit a claim with them, which is usually for minor things like ear infections, allergy shots, etc., they request that my vet send her ENTIRE medical history. This doesn't sound so bad when you have a 6 month-old puppy, but she is now 5 years old and her history is that much longer. She recently had to have emergency surgery for a hernia that appeared and quickly progressed. She has a vet that comes to the house, so I had to take her to an emergency hospital to be evaluated and then to a separate hospital for the surgery 2 days later. In between, her vet sent her a rx for antibiotics. This happened in August. It is now the 2 days before October and I've only received reimbursement for ONE claim. There are 3 claims in total.

    She has no history with the other hospitals because she was referred to them strictly for the surgery. They have sent Healthy Paws everything they have requested and I've gotten nowhere with them for reimbursement of the claims. On top of that, I get random emails from them saying that they received line item descriptions for the claims, but need more info. The email has NO information what claim this is for or even the procedure, date or provider. When I asked about this email, they said it was a generic email that goes out, but I should not have received it. Huh?!

    I have been on the phone with them 4 times in the past 3 weeks alone to get this sorted out and I'm getting absolutely nowhere. It seems like they are doing everything they can to NOT pay this claim. I signed up with them over 5 years ago as soon as my fur baby came home and she was still in perfect health, so there were no pre-existing conditions, etc. I'm at my wit's end and caution anyone to consider using them. The headache alone is worth reviewing others. I know that that they are not perfect because I had another one with my prior dog, but they were better to deal with. Horrendous! Just avoid. I will be filing a complaint with the Better Business Bureau.
