Pet insurance helps reduce the financial risk of unexpected veterinary costs. The right coverage plan can buy you priceless peace of mind, and empower you to do the right thing for your dog or cat.
On a month-to-month basis, pet insurance works most like renter’s insurance. You pay a monthly premium to your insurer for coverage. Your policy will outline which conditions/expenses are covered, your reimbursment rate, your deductible, and the maximum payout (or annual limit).
Most pet health insurance plans will reimburse you, the policyholder, rather than pay the vet directly. This means you don’t have to worry about finding an “in-network” vet and can benefit from your coverage at any licensed vet clinic or animal hospital in the U.S.
