The Walking ClubShort answer: it can help with big vet bills, but plans differ a lot, so read the details.
The AKC says it often takes only one unfortunate incident for a vet bill to go over the total premiums paid, especially for a young pet. It gives the example of a plan with a $200 deductible and a 20 percent co-pay, and says to look at the details of any plan. Tufts says pet insurance is designed to offset the cost of mostly illnesses and accidents, and that owners usually pay the vet and then submit invoices for reimbursement.
The AKC suggests asking how financially stable the company is and whether pre-approval is offered for planned procedures. See the cost of owning a dog.
Ask your vet practice if they can help you understand your options.
