Do Your Research Before Choosing This Plan
I got this insurance through work and assumed it would be a high-quality plan. Looking back, I really wish I had done more research before enrolling. There are many better options available with significantly stronger coverage.
My 6-year-old cat was recently diagnosed with cancer. While this plan reimburses 70% of eligible expenses, the annual reimbursement cap is only $7,500. Unfortunately, that amount does not go very far when chemotherapy treatments can easily exceed $20,000. Since then, I’ve seen many other plans offering 90% reimbursement and annual limits as high as $100,000.
My advice to anyone considering pet insurance is to carefully compare plans before committing. Not researching my options more thoroughly is my biggest regret. Now, because my cat has a pre-existing condition, switching providers is no longer a realistic option.
