Spoke with Maddy and Cathy/Kathy

Spoke with two reps in the last week as I have many questions on my first ever claim to submit for my cat. I was hoping not to have to submit any claims for many years as I have fairly young cats, 5 and over 1.
My 5 year old was diagnosed with crystals, so here I am about to submit my first ever claim.
I want to express how wonderful Maddy and Cathy/ Kathy were on the call with me. Maddy helped me with additional questions I had and gave me great information when submitting a claim I was not aware of. She was fantastic and very professional and pleasant to talk with. Cathy/ Kathy I should've grabbed the spelling of her name, my apologies was just as amazing and helpful with my questions. She even put me on hold to make sure she was providing me with the correct information. Both reps were very kind and professional. It makes the process of the pet owner on the other side of it a more relaxed and have some relief they have this support. Thank you ladies for your great customer service.

Claim Denied Despite Vet Record Showing No Gingivitis

My dog required dental treatment, and I submitted a pre‑authorization request and supporting veterinary records. The claim was denied on the basis that the condition was “pre‑existing.” However, a March 7, 2025 veterinary record clearly documents:
“Oral Cavity: Teeth are free from excessive tartar, no gingivitis present.”

This is a clinical finding recorded during a hands‑on wellness exam. Despite this written medical record showing no gingivitis at that time, the insurer stated they contacted the veterinary clinic and were told that no oral exam was performed. When I contacted the clinic directly, they informed me they have no record of being contacted by the insurer and confirmed that the oral cavity findings in the chart reflect the veterinarian’s observations.

I requested documentation from the insurer showing who they spoke with at the clinic, when the conversation occurred, and what was documented, since this alleged conversation contradicts the written medical record. The insurer declined to provide that information while continuing to rely on it to deny the claim.

The insurer also took 9 days to provide an initial pre‑authorization response for a dental procedure involving extractions for active dental disease.

I have now filed a formal complaint with the Washington State Office of the Insurance Commissioner regarding the claim handling and use of evidence in this denial.

Reply from Prudent Pet Insurance

Dear Shameez,

Thank you for your feedback. We understand how disappointing it can be to receive an outcome that isn’t what you expected, and we’re sorry for the frustration this situation has caused.

Your claim was reviewed based on the full set of medical records we received, which documented clinical signs of dental disease prior to the start of your policy. As a result, the condition met the definition of a pre-existing condition under the policy terms approved by the Washington State Office of the Insurance Commissioner, and the claim was processed in accordance with those terms.

We know this is not the result you were hoping for and are happy to answer any additional questions you have on this claim or your coverage.

Sincerely,
Prudent Pet Insurance

Was not paid for operation because there were no pre existing vet visits. To me that means no pre-existing problems.
Canceled my coverage after receiving no help. Would not recommend this company.

Dear Sharon,

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations.

Our policies require a veterinary exam within 12 months prior to the start of coverage. This exam is necessary to establish a baseline of your pet’s health. When an exam is not on file within that required period, the first available veterinary visit must be used as the baseline, and any conditions noted at that time are considered pre-existing under the policy terms.

We understand how frustrating this can feel, especially when you were hoping for coverage, and we’re sorry that this requirement led to an outcome you were unhappy with. These provisions are part of the policy terms approved by state regulators and apply to all policyholders.

If you have any additional questions, we’d be happy to help.

Sincerely,
Prudent Pet Insurance Team
