Do the real-world costs of your pet’s veterinary care surprise or worry you?
If so, there are ways to help you prepare for both the expected and unexpected costs of providing the best veterinary care for your pets.
Pet Insurance
It’s not easy for a pet owner to decline the treatment their pet needs because of cost. Pet insurance reimburses veterinary costs up to 90% for things like accidents and illnesses and makes it easier to say yes to recommended treatments.
Wellness plans
Wellness exams, vaccines, and other preventive care can help keep your pet from getting sick. Wellness plans are designed to spread out the costs of the routine care that your pet will need over the year, rather than paying a lump sum at your annual or bi-annual wellness visit.
Third-party payment plans
Third-party payment companies offer payment plans for a pet owner’s veterinary bills. Unlike pet insurance plans, the pet owner must repay the third party in full, plus any interest accrued.
