I initially chose Trupanion because of its **per-condition deductible**, which seemed like a great deal. The idea that once you pay the deductible for a condition, you’re covered for life sounded like a financial safety net. **But there’s a catch**—what you think a condition is and what they classify it as can be entirely different. I have a **golden retriever** and live in **California**, where vet care is already expensive. Over the years, I’ve **paid thousands out of pocket** for the same recurring issues, thinking I'd eventually see the benefit of having met the deductible. Instead, I was repeatedly disappointed to find that Trupanion either classified the conditions differently or found other ways to deny meaningful coverage. Yesterday, when they pulled the same stunt yet again for one of my recent claims, I finally sat down and did the math. And what I found was infuriating: * **Total amount claimed (across multiple years):** $18,785.07 * **Total amount paid by Trupanion:** $4,074.02 * **Percentage of total expenses actually covered:** **21.69%** And this doesn’t even factor in the **monthly premiums** I paid on top of it. When I do the math, I might as well have **skipped insurance altogether** and just covered my pet’s medical bills myself. It would have cost me about the same, if not less. Now, I am considering switching to a different pet insurance. While they have a waiting period for **curable pre-existing conditions**, I am **happy to wait it out**—because let’s be honest, Trupanion isn’t paying for those conditions anyway. At this point, I might as well **put everything out of pocket** while I wait for better coverage. If you're considering Trupanion, **think twice**. Their deductible structure sounds promising, but their classification loopholes mean you might **never actually reach it** for conditions you thought were covered. At this point, I feel like I’ve wasted money that could have gone directly into my pet’s care instead of into an insurance plan that gave me little in return. I wouldn’t recommend Trupanion to anyone expecting true financial relief from pet medical expenses. **Save your money, start an emergency pet fund, and skip the frustration!**

I looked online for a quote for pet insurance and the people at RSPCA have called twice already trying to get me as a customer and when I say no because I wanna look around at other options… they ask if I wanna sign up until I change my mind and then cancel So annoying Does this happen to anyone else ?

I am due to give birth end of May. The hospital that my obgyn is partnered/contracted with is where I went on 03/01 because I had a pregnancy scare. I went straight to Labor & Delivery and was there for a couple of hours. The on-call obgyn is the one that saw me. I have NOT received a bill yet, only an EOB from my primary insurance, stating that the claim was denied. In the EOB- it was stating that the hospital is an out of network facility. However, I’ve spoken to my insurance directly few different times who said the hospital that I went to indeed is an IN-NETWORK facility. Now the last agent I’ve spoken to today told me “address where the service was rendered is confirmed to be outside the network for the facility. Here is what adoress of the facility showing on the claim” and it’s a complete different address than the hospital I went to, like in a whole different state. The first agent that I spoke a couple weeks ago stated the claim type says “outpatient hospital non contracting”. The last time I tried contacting the hospital themselves, the agent was saying I need a bill/statement account number, which I didn’t and still don’t have because I was never sent a bill as of today and he said to wait until I get a bill. It’s been over a month and I still haven’t received a bill from the hospital from when I went to 03/01. I was going to explain my situation and how I still haven’t received a bill but the billing office is now closed. I do have secondary insurance but they didn’t even receive a claim from hospital, which I am assuming they didn’t even bill my secondary. I’m just so confused and overwhelmed! Does this sound like the hospital submitted the claim incorrectly?

Attaching the response(s) from Healthy Paws' CEO and team, including mine back. You can't make this stuff up.... Original context: Protected Since: 06/08/2011 • Current Monthly Premium: $431.58 • New Monthly Premium Starting in 63 Days: $1,207.12 Oh- and they limited comments on their Instagram after I have been posting this increase there too.

I bought a almost new used camry and i almost got into a huge wreck this last weekend, pretty much I was fishing and this drunk idiot sideswiped my friends car with his boat while pushing his empty trailer nearly off the cliff towards the river, thankfully the hitch stayed locked in we were able to drive it to safety minus scratches either way they exchanged information. Afterwards, we were talking about it. I still owe almost 30k for my brand new camry even if I didn't notice who the driver was Would there be any way that gap would cover my car if it were to have fallen or got heavly damaged due to the small cliff? I.had previous vandalism to my car last year and it was a headache through insurance

Just wondering if anyone else has dealt with this. Recently was in an accident which I was not at fault. I have a luxury vehicle that was fully paid for. State Farm totaled my vehicle. My issue is the amount they want to settle my claim for is substantially less than what I think it should be or was expecting. Do I have to accept that? Is my only recourse to file a lawsuit? I live in Wyoming BTW. Thanks for any help or advice!

I currently have Spot but they decided to raise my premium with no real extra benefit (as most insurance companies do around this time of year). I am now getting charged around $40 a month for a $500 deductible, 90% reimbursement after deductible and no preventative care. Is this fair? Also if anyone has actually filed a claim and been satisfied with the company/experience which was it? Any company I should avoid all together? Insight would be nice! (side note: I was looking at Progressive coverage since I could bundle with auto but idk if that's a good idea)

I purchased Lemonade insurance for my mother’s dog last year because she thought he was having seizures. However he wasn’t. I put his age as the same as my dog. Because that is what I truly thought it was and he’s actually 8. Back story we “inherited” him and really didn’t know his age so truly was a guess. Anyways fast forward to this past week. He became very ill and has had to spend the last 3+days in the emergency vet cost approx 7k and now I’m have a full blown panic that because the ages don’t align they going to completely null and void my policy and not cover any of his medical bills

Anyone has a good recommendation? My roof is 14 years old and existing insurance co. (Hippo) refused my claim...my current policy is insanely high with 5% deductible TIA

I asked the Doc to send a simple urine sample to Quest. My insurance covers 100% labs with Quest. Today I see on my Florida Blue Cross account they sent it to a different lab and my portion is $3170. What to do?
