Paws & Policies: Understanding the Value of Pet Insurance

With pet healthcare costs rising, many pet parents may underestimate the cost of vet visits and emergency care, which can lead to emotional and financial stress.

Pet insurance helps provide financial support for vet bills when a pet gets injured or sick. 80% of pets will experience a medical emergency in their lifetime.1 This makes pet insurance a crucial safety net for pet parents to consider when looking to minimize the cost of vet care. Pet insurance helps pet parents manage unexpected veterinary bills, helping ensure a pet can receive necessary care with less financial burden on the owner.

Determining Coverage

The best pet insurance is one that fits your needs and budget. When choosing a plan, try to consider how much medical care for accidents and illnesses may be needed. Consider the type of animal, known health issues in that breed and other factors.

Pet insurance can cover accidents, illnesses and wellness exams. It can also assist in covering the high cost of tests and treatments for unfortunate occurrences like broken bones or other injuries.

Most pet insurance providers allow visits to any licensed veterinarian. Claims can be submitted for illnesses, emergency care and injuries. Owners will be reimbursed based on the policy terms and coverage.
