Pumpkin Pet Insurance Revolutionizes Veterinary Care Financing with PumpkinNow™
In critical moments when pets need urgent care, financial decisions shouldn’t hinder treatment. Pumpkin Pet Insurance has launched PumpkinNow™, a groundbreaking urgent pay service designed to eliminate financial barriers and expedite claim payments. This innovative service enables pet owners and veterinary professionals to make swift, confident decisions about essential care.
Transforming the Pet Insurance Landscape
Every six seconds, a pet owner faces a veterinary bill exceeding $1,000. Since 2020, Pumpkin Pet Insurance has paid over $60 million in accident and illness claims above this threshold. These high-stakes situations are emotionally taxing for both pet owners and veterinary teams, where timely treatment significantly impacts patient outcomes. PumpkinNow addresses this challenge by providing covered and qualified customers with direct payments of up to 90% of eligible veterinary expenses within 15 minutes.
Addressing Pet Owners’ Financial Concerns
61% of pet insurance customers purchase policies primarily due to concerns about out-of-pocket costs. The top reason pet owners choose Pumpkin is to make healthcare decisions without worrying about affordability. However, even with insurance, the uncertainty of coverage and large upfront payments can be overwhelming during critical care scenarios. PumpkinNow bridges this gap by offering real-time payments for eligible claims of $1,000 or more.
How PumpkinNow Works
When enrolling, new customers connect their pet’s medical records and bank account to their Pumpkin profile. Proactive medical record requests are sent to primary veterinarians, enabling PumpkinNow’s dedicated claims adjusters to process claims instantly. This streamlined process cuts hours or even days from the traditional claims timeline. Customers with Real-Time-Payment-enabled bank accounts can receive funds immediately via direct deposit, allowing them to settle their vet bills before leaving the clinic.
“When your pet is hurt or sick, you should know exactly what’s covered on the spot,” said Julia Sosa, Chief Experience Officer at Pumpkin. “PumpkinNow is a novel, point-of-care experience that provides coverage clarity, expedited claims approvals, and payments for covered expenses within 15 minutes – all before a pet owner checks out and pays their vet bill.”
