What Clients Need To Know About Pet Insurance
There are no networks to worry about. You can use pet insurance at any veterinary clinic or animal hospital.
Once the annual deductible is met, pet insurance can help you save on:
Accidents
Illness
Diagnostics
Surgeries
Medication
and More
Pet insurance does not cover pre-existing conditions, so it’s helpful to enroll before any issues are present.
Why do we think this is important?
- 1 out of 3 pets will need emergency care, which can cost thousands
- If a pet gets sick or injured, pet insurance can cover (reimburse) treatment & tests
- Clients can also get reimbursed on routine care if they have a wellness plan
Out of more than 20,000 pet owners surveyed, less than 20% said they could afford to cover a $5,000 medical expense out-of-pocket without pet insurance.
