Smart Paws Joins With Trupanion to Provide New Opportunities for Veterinary Practices and Pet Owners

Posted on: October 5, 2022 By: Insurance Updates

BAD SCHWARTAU, Germany, Oct. 05, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Smart Paws GmbH, a rapidly growing pet insurance provider in Germany and Switzerland, has announced its union with Trupanion a leading international provider of pet health insurance.

Smart Paws was established to help veterinarians ensure that sick and injured pets receive the very best treatment available underpinned by the most advanced diagnostic procedures, surgical techniques and medication without being compromised by an owner’s ability to pay.

Trupanion’s mission is to help responsible pet owners budget for the care for their pets. This union sees both organisations perfectly aligned and recognises the important role of the veterinary community in educating pet owners about the benefits of robust pet health insurance for their dogs and cats. 

Both companies work closely with veterinarians to drive higher uptake of insurance, improve confidence in coverage and make the claims process more transparent and efficient with payment offered directly to the practice.

Sven Isenberg, CEO of Smart Paws, welcomed the development, saying, “With a focus entirely on the veterinarian-client-patient relationship, Smart Paws and Trupanion share the same aim – to be a trusted partner to pet owners and the veterinary professionals who provide the highest level of care for their pets.”

Pet owners increasingly view pets as part of the family and seek increasingly higher-quality goods and services for them. With the rapidly rising cost of pet health care, many are looking for solutions to help them budget for the unexpected. Professor Dick White, Co-Founder of Smart Paws, commented, “As a veterinarian with over 40 years’ experience, it is clear to me that the provision of reliable pet insurance not only benefits pets and their owners, but it enhances the job satisfaction and practice business performance of veterinary professionals.”

The Smart Paws team in Germany will continue to manage and administer member policies while being an integral part of Trupanion’s expanding international organisation led by Simon Wheeler, EVP of International at Trupanion. He added, “We are excited to bring Smart Paws into the fold with their focus on supporting the dedication of veterinarians and their staff. By providing dependable pet health insurance, we are able to support busy practices and encourage more owners to enjoy the peace of mind that comes with robust insurance coverage and fast, efficient claims settlement.”
