It took Pet's Best 2 months to settle my claims once my cat died. And my 80% reimbursement rate turned out to actually only be about 58%, thanks to Pet's Best's "fuzzy math" system. I may or may not purchase pet insurance once I get my next cat, but you can rest assured that I won't purchase that policy through Pet's Best. Thanks for the "education" - let the buyer beware!

Hi Dennis, thank you for your time and feedback. We understand your concern about faster claim processing. Pets Best is actively investing in our people, processes, and technology for our claims workflows to better service our pet parents. We are committed to continued work toward decreasing claim processing time and providing more efficient service and a more positive experience for our members. We apologize for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your patience. 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 Coinsurance 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 Coinsurance percentage on the entire eligible invoice, even before meeting the Annual Deductible for the policy year. We appreciate your feedback, as it assists us in working towards improved customer satisfaction. We hope you have a good day. -AS
