Chubb’s pet insurance in the U.S. is offered through Healthy Paws and focuses on accident and illness coverage with lifetime protection and 15‑day waiting periods for accidents and illnesses.

Plans cover accidents and illnesses with customizable reimbursement rates shown on policy declarations, no annual limit (subject to lifetime limits), lifetime cover, waiting periods of 15 days, preventive and routine care excluded, and wellness budgets not part of standard cover; deductibles and exact reimbursement percentages are set on the policy declarations. Compared with main competitors, Chubb/Healthy Paws emphasizes broad accident-and-illness protection, fast app-based claims and reimbursements, and a pricing approach that varies by breed and age, often showing higher premiums for certain purebreds and younger versus older insurability cutoffs.

Best suited for owners of young pets (under 7 years at enrollment) who want comprehensive accident and illness coverage, fast claims handling, and accept breed- and age-sensitive premiums.

Healthy Paws (a Chubb company) carries a Trustpilot score of 3.7/5 from 2,668 reviews; customer feedback frequently cites fast, straightforward app-based claims and quick reimbursements, alongside recurring complaints about premium increases and occasional service or claims-review issues.

The Chubb Guarantees

Chubb offers a single comprehensive Accident & Illness pet insurance product in 2025 that is positioned to cover clinical treatment for unexpected injuries and illnesses rather than routine or preventive care. The plan is underwritten and administered through established insurance channels and is structured to let policyholders access core clinical benefits such as emergency care, surgery, imaging and laboratory testing. Benefit levels (including reimbursement percentage and declarations shown to the policyholder) are configurable at the point of sale, while lifetime cover is available under the product design. Waiting periods for both accidents and illnesses are short (15 days), and euthanasia for medical necessity is recognized under the coverage.

Policy mechanics combine an initial waiting period with exclusions for conditions that predate the policy start. Annual reimbursement is effectively uncapped (reported as no annual limit, subject to a lifetime limit), and common claim categories such as consultations, boarding fees and routine preventive services are excluded by default. Age or condition-based rules apply in specific cases (for example, limits applied to certain orthopedic conditions for older pets). Alternative therapies, care abroad, cremation and several non-medical expenses are either limited or not covered.

Key strengths of the offering are the focus on clinical treatment with surgical and diagnostic coverage, availability of lifetime cover, and short waiting periods that make the policy responsive after inception. Main weaknesses are the routine-care exclusions (vaccinations, parasite prevention, routine dental cleaning), limited clarity on enrollment age bands for some profiles, and a number of administrative and activity-based exclusions that restrict cover for breeding, commercial use, or owner-caused injury. Consumers should review claims mechanics and any lifetime limits when selecting benefit levels to ensure coverage aligns with anticipated risk and financial tolerance.

Accident & Illness Plan Details

Exclusions and limitations: Pre-existing conditions are excluded—any illness, condition, or injury that developed or showed symptoms prior to the policy effective date is not reimbursed. Preventive and routine care (spaying/neutering, vaccinations, parasite prevention, routine dental care, grooming and similar maintenance) are excluded unless an endorsement specifically indicates otherwise. Elective or cosmetic procedures, breeding and whelping-related costs, experimental treatments and many non-medical items (food, supplements, administrative fees, transport, boarding, and after‑life services) are also excluded. Specific owner-related acts (intentional, neglectful or preventable acts) and activity-related exclusions (racing, professional guarding, organized fighting) apply.

Key operational limits to note: there are age-related constraints for certain conditions (for example, some illness cover limitations for older pets), and certain orthopedic conditions may be restricted if they occur within defined waiting periods or are pre-existing. Consultations, routine exam fees and many non-treatment fees are not covered by default, which can increase out-of-pocket spending for owners even when clinical treatment is reimbursed. Policyholders should confirm deductible structure, any lifetime limit details and enrollment eligibility for their pet prior to purchase.

Chubb Exclusions

Chubb’s pet insurance excludes standard pre-existing conditions and focuses cover on new accidents and illnesses rather than routine or preventive care.

Notable exclusions include an age-based rule that denies coverage for hip dysplasia for pets six years or older at enrollment and a specific cruciate ligament rule that excludes treatment in other legs if one leg had a pre-existing cruciate issue.

Routine preventive services, elective or cosmetic procedures, special diets and many non-medical fees (consultations, boarding, transport) are excluded, which can leave owners responsible for frequent out-of-pocket costs.

Commercial-use and catastrophic-event exclusions (e.g., war, nuclear incidents) further narrow protection compared with broader market offerings.

Chubb Prices

Chubb’s offering sits in a mid-to-premium segment of the market, with monthly premiums for young, popular breeds that are clearly above entry-level alternatives but reflect broader protection and flexible benefit design. Customizable reimbursement rates and the absence of an annual payout cap (subject to a lifetime limit) mean policyholders can trade higher premiums for reduced out-of-pocket exposure on major treatments, which supports higher-price positioning for pets with greater veterinary needs.

Loading...

Deductible levels and chosen reimbursement percentages materially influence competitiveness: a lower deductible and higher reimbursement reduce short‑term costs but raise the premium, while the insurer’s lifetime cover feature and coverage of major services such as surgery and imaging provide value that many traditional players limit through annual caps. Eligibility rules that restrict enrollment for older pets (under 7 years for new registrations) also affect price comparisons, and these structural choices help explain why Chubb’s premiums sit above basic market offerings without positioning it at the extreme premium tier.

What is the reimbursement amount with Chubb?

✅ Example 1: TPLO surgery (cruciate ligament repair) Total veterinary cost: $4,500 (surgery, anesthesia, implants, medications) Deductible amount to subtract: $200 (annual deductible) Amount reimbursable after deductible with the highest-tier plan: $4,500 – $200 = $4,300 90% of that amount reimbursed: $4,300 × 90% = $3,870
👉 You receive a reimbursement of $3,870.

ℹ️ *The deductible applies once per policy year; remaining out-of-pocket includes the deductible plus any non-covered fees or excluded items.*

✅ Example 2: MRI and advanced diagnostics for neurological signs Total veterinary cost: $2,200 (MRI, anesthesia, labwork, specialist fees) Deductible amount to subtract: $0 (deductible already met earlier in the policy year) Amount reimbursable after deductible with the highest-tier plan: $2,200 – $0 = $2,200 90% of that amount reimbursed: $2,200 × 90% = $1,980
👉 You receive a reimbursement of $1,980.

ℹ️ *Reimbursements apply only to eligible charges and will reduce any applicable lifetime coverage available under the policy.*

✅ Example 3: Wound repair and medications (minor surgery) Total veterinary cost: $350 (wound repair, sutures, pain meds, follow-up supplies) Deductible amount to subtract: $200 (annual deductible) Amount reimbursable after deductible with the highest-tier plan: $350 – $200 = $150 90% of that amount reimbursed: $150 × 90% = $135
👉 You receive a reimbursement of $135.

ℹ️ *If a single invoice is lower than the deductible, you pay it in full; reimbursements begin once the annual deductible threshold is reached.*

Chubb Assistance

Chubb’s pet insurance emphasizes fast, digital claims handling and a dedicated mobile app, delivering quick reimbursements and convenient account access for U.S. policyholders.

Policyholders can visit any licensed U.S. veterinarian rather than being tied to a partner network, preserving choice for emergencies and specialist care.

There is no dedicated 24/7 veterinary teleconsultation line included, so owners should plan for in‑clinic emergency visits with subsequent digital claim submission.

Because routine preventive services are generally excluded, owners should confirm deductible, reimbursement rate, and any available payment or financing arrangements before major procedures.
