You have two options when making a Petplan insurance claim, either your vet can submit the claim on your behalf through their system, or you can fill out the claims form online yourself. If you choose to submit the claim yourself, Petplan will then share the form with your vet so that they can complete their section and send it back to Petplan.
Once Petplan has received your claim, they will review it and let you know whether it has been successful or not. Petplan pays 90% of claims within 5 working days of receiving them.
