ASPCA Pet Insurance - WARNING ASPCA PET INSURANCE PRACTICING BAD FAITH INSURANCE
ASPCA Pet Insurance Is Engaging in Bad Faith Claim Denials
Pet owners need to be warned—ASPCA Pet Health Insurance refuses to honor valid claims and will shift excuses to avoid payouts.
My dog, Ash, suffered an acute ACL tear after slipping—a sudden accident. As a retired veterinary technician, I have personally assisted in ACL surgeries and know this was trauma-induced, NOT a progressive condition.
ASPCA first denied coverage by falsely calling the injury an illness, despite veterinary documentation confirming it was an accident. When I challenged their reasoning, they changed their excuse, now claiming the medical records did not specify BOTH a timestamp AND exact location.
The medical records clearly state: "Presented for limping on right rear leg since yesterday, after slipping…Lame right rear - ACL tear."
When I demanded a policy citation proving their timestamp/place requirement, they refused to provide one. Instead, they responded with: "You can reply to this email with any concerns, and they will be forwarded to our management team. If you prefer, you can send your concerns in writing to our office."
ASPCA would rather deflect and stall than fairly review claims. Their tactics are clear: ❌ Ignore veterinary evidence ❌ Shift denial reasons instead of applying consistent policy terms ❌ Refuse to cite an actual exclusion supporting their decision
I have filed a complaint with the Illinois Department of Insurance (IDOI) and will be sharing my experience widely to warn others about their unethical practices. If you have coverage through ASPCA, be cautious—they will do anything to deny a legitimate claim.
Has anyone else had similar issues with pet insurance companies? Let’s talk. People deserve transparency, and our pets deserve the coverage we paid for.
