Pet Health Insurance
The Basics
Pet insurance works by transferring the economic risk of having to pay for your pet’s medical expenses in exchange for paying a premium. Pet insurance gives you the peace of mind that your pet will be protected if and when the time comes.
Breed Impact
It's a fact that some breeds of dogs and cats cost more to care for than others. First and foremost, there is typically a cost difference between what insurance will cost for a cat versus a dog. As we all know, not all pets are created equal, and as such, there isn't just one flat premium amount that will cover every pet.
Arguments For/Against Pet Insurance
With the different types of insurance available, we can provide the care and protection that our family deserves. But even though most of us have insurance to protect our human family members, many of us do not have pet insurance to protect our furrier family members.
Plans & Policies
Coverage
Understanding your pet insurance policy is a critical step to making sure there are no surprises when you go to submit a claim. Conditions are described as the medical events for which your pet will and won't be eligible for coverage.
Choosing a Plan
There are many factors that go into choosing a pet insurance plan. Unlike most other types of insurance that have coverage content standardized by the state/province (home, car, etc.) pet insurance does not.
How It Works
Different insurance companies have different processes when it comes to applying for pet insurance and filing a claim. You can expect to answer some questions about your pet at the time of application and additional questions when you make your first claim.
