Pet Insurance
The basics
Pet Insurance 101
Cover veterinary costs by reimbursing a portion of eligible expenses based on your policy.
Costs vary based on factors like your pet’s breed, age, location, and coverage level.
Pet insurance can be worth it if it helps offset unexpected vet bills and provides financial peace of mind.
Most plans have a waiting period before coverage starts, which varies by provider and policy.
Plans cover unexpected veterinary costs, but they also have exclusions, waiting periods and fees.
A deductible is how much you pay out-of-pocket before coverage kicks in.
