Dog medical insurance
Dog medical insurance is available and affordable
Dog medical insurance has been around for between 15 and 20 years but is now
becoming popular and available. Just as in human health insurance, there are
different levels of coverage and hundreds of dog medical insurance
companies. Plans are based on species (cat, dog, bird, etc.), age and
whether or not the pet has any pre-existing condition, and the animal’s life
style (i.e. inside or outside cat).
Most dog medical insurance companies wait until the puppy reaches 6-8 weeks
old before coverage begins, although some do not have a lower age limit.
However when it comes to older dogs, most companies have a cut off age
between 8 and 12 years. There is protection available for the older dog. If
the dog is below the upper age limit when the policy is written then
coverage does not stop when the cut off age is reached.
When it comes to pre-existing conditions some companies will provide
coverage, if the dog is stable, after a six month waiting period. Other dog
medical insurance companies will refuse all coverage to an animal with a
pre-existing condition or terminal illness.
The current animal deductible is around $100.00. The basic policy monthly
payment is about $15.00. If you want extra coverage (i.e. a cancer rider) it
will cost extra, but it is available. Most of the dog medical insurance
companies provide coverage in the U.S. and Canada, such as
www.petshealthgroup.com. There are several U.K. companies listed also
