Pet Health Insurance - Is it right for you?What is pet health insurance and how does it work? Most people are familiar with health insurance. You pay a monthly insurance premium, and in return your health insurance company pools premiums and risks and covers a large portion of your medical expenses when they exceed an annual deductible level. Good idea. What about health insurance for your pet? Most people are not even aware it exists. But it does; and it works differently from people insurance. With a pet insurance policy, you normally get to choose any licensed veterinarian you like to take your pet to. You normally pay the entire bill in full at the time of service (no co-pays), fill out your claim form, and send it in to the insurance company for reimbursement. Cost of a pet insurance policy typically runs about $300-$400 per year - if you've ever had a large veterinarian bill for your pet (or worse, a series of them!), you know pet medical bills can quickly run into the thousands of dollars. Each pet insurance company is different and offers different levels of coverage. At Horseshoe Lake Animal Hospital we recommend Pets Best Insurance, since they are the most user friendly and offer the widest coverage base. To learn more about Pets Best go to Petsbest.com.
