Pet insurance pays for a large portion of the veterinary treatment of the insured person’s ill or injured pet. This means a greater access to care, without as much worry about how to pay for that care during an emergency or illness.

As veterinary medicine is increasingly employing advanced medical techniques and drugs, and owners have higher expectations for their pets’ health care and standard of living than previously, the market for pet insurance has increased.

Each insurance company is different, so it pays to take time to find out what coverage each offers and determine the best fit for your pet and your family. Many companies will allow you to customize your coverage with different deductibles, co-insurance options, and even alternative care options such as acupuncture.

All Animal Care Clinic doesn’t recommend insurance coverage for wellness care, as that can be budgeted. However, if you’d like the peace of mind that your pet will receive the needed care without straining your wallet, see if pet insurance makes sense for your family.
