Furkin Members
Policy Documents
We love well informed pet owners.
We encourage all Furkin members (and future members) to read the Furkin policy, to get a full understanding of our coverage, waiting periods, limitations, and exclusions.
Reimbursing your claim is a priority
Each form includes instructions on how to complete and submit your claim request. Complete the fillable form, and send it to us with copies of your paid veterinary fees or other invoices that may be applicable for that claim type.
About 50% of claims are processed within 24 hours and most claims are processed within 7-10 business days. Some more complex claims can take longer as we may need to contact your veterinarian for more information.
See page 12 of the Furkin Policy for how claim reimbursements are calculated.
Claims Questions
How long will it take for my payment?
Most claims are processed within 7-10 business days (about 50% are within 24 hours). Some more complex claims may take longer. If you haven’t received your payment within 15 days, contact our Care team by phone at 1-888-453-1088, or email care@furkin.com
Can I be reimbursed by direct deposit?
Pre-authorized payment for premiums and direct deposit for payment are set up by you at the time of enrollment. If you need to make any changes to your payment or reimbursement methods, call our Care Team at 1-888-453-1088.
Can the vet’s office send in my claim?
You will need to make these arrangements directly with your veterinarian’s office.
How will I know if my claim is being covered?
Most of the coverage details are outlined in your policy. If you’re not sure and have questions about your coverage, contact our Care Team at 1-888-453-1088, or email care@furkin.com.
Additional Member Services
For any Medical Emergency which involves life or limb or inability to breathe, contact your emergency hospital or Veterinarian for immediate support.
24/7 Telehealth*: 1-888-453-1005
This toll-free telephone service gives you access to veterinary nurses 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. They will be on hand to support you if you need to discuss your concerns regarding your pet’s health before taking them to an emergency hospital, or even prior to visiting your regular veterinarian.
PLEASE NOTE: Telehealth cannot provide information about your policy details or coverage.
Petriage Online* www.petriage.com
On top of Telehealth support you also receive free access to Petriage – an online pet ‘triaging’ software application. Rather than searching randomly through the web trying to find credible advice, Petriage gives you instant, actionable info about your pet’s health through their dynamic mobile app.
Simply set-up your Petriage account by visiting the Apple App Store or Google Play Store and download the Petriage app to your device.
*Telehealth Support is offered through Vetsdirect Limited and Petriage is offered through Petriage Inc
