Pet Health Insurance

Pet insurance is basically a tool to help you afford the financial costs for quality veterinary and prescription care. We understand that pets are family and we help to keep your dog or cat Happy, Healthy and Protected. We help you avoid a tough decision between your pet's well-being and your personal finances.

Co-Insurance is the agreement between the insured (you) and the insurer (us), and means that you as pet owner will cover a percentage of the cost and the deductible has been paid. Check your selected coverage for more information or contact a sales agent at 1 (800) 935-7280.

We don’t cover pre-existing conditions to keep premiums lower. If a pre-existing condition is curable and 180 days have passed since its cure and last treatment, it may become eligible for coverage, with the exception of knee and ligament conditions. If a knee or ligament condition occurs before the coverage effective date or during a waiting period, any future ones won’t be covered.

More treatment options become available for your dogs and cats as veterinary care costs rise rapidly. Thanks to pet health insurance you can count on the financial support of a pet insurance provider to help you give your dogs and cats the best possible care depending on the coverage plan level you´ve selected for your dog or cat.

Enroll your dog or cat into a pet insurance coverage plan from 8 weeks old. Whether your cherished pet is eight weeks old or five years old, even the youngest or oldest dog or cat can require unforeseen medical attention. Pet Health Insurance can be a safety net for unexpected expenses and can also include coverage for routine pet health care, including vaccinations, regular laboratory tests and dental care. Pet health conditions that are prone to young dogs and cats, such as ear infections or upper respiratory infections, may be covered as well.

Pet insurance has many factors that can make your premium higher or lower. The factors that affect the cost of pet insurance premiums are species, breed, location, deductible, and co-insurance.

Pet insurance coverage plans help cover the expenses of unexpected illnesses or accidents in case anything happens to your dog or cat. Pet Insurance helps pet owners provide the best medical treatment with less worry about cost. These plans do not cover health conditions that occur prior to the effective date of the plan, and it’s best to insure your pet as early as possible so future illnesses and accidents may be covered.

The benefits of pet health insurance are numerous. It is important to take care of your pet's routine veterinary care and to keep veterinary check-ups up to date. Remember, minor conditions can turn into major conditions if not addressed immediately. Although pet health insurance typically helps to protect your dogs and cats in case of accidents and illnesses, it doesn't have to be for unexpected situations only. Optimal wellness care is important to keep your dog or cat healthy and happy. Regular and routine veterinary visits can help good pet health over the pet’s lifetime. Having an insurance policy with illness coverage could mean not having to put off necessary care for a pet. We have incident limits and exclusions.

Dog insurance covers a range of medical expenses for covered accidents or illness. The most basic plans normally cover hospitalization or other emergency treatments. From there, dog owners are able to choose different add on’s, such as optional wellness coverage.

Cat insurance can help you afford necessary veterinary care for felines only. Cats love to explore their new surroundings and establishing boundaries which makes them prone to accidents.

We work hard to make our pet insurance as affordable as possible with monthly, quarterly, semi-annually and annual payment options.
