For the price you need to have expanded coverages
I would pay for an increased monthly premium if you offered more services, such as teeth cleaning and more wellness vet services.

The Cost Of Wellness
I was happy with my insurance coverage for 2018. I would have given a higher rating if it weren't for the fact that the cost of Wellness increased by at least 20% for the 2019 renewal. It made the cost of insurance not worth the benefit of having wellness so I dropped the wellness for my renewal. I also couldn't get a definitive answer on aqua therapy coverage for treatment of my dog's torn cruciate ligament. This was the determining factor of whether I was going to renew my policy. I also come to find out that rules for physical therapies will be changing in January. A veterinarian must be on the premises or treatment will not be covered. I am not confident I will renew my policy for 2020.
