Is pet insurance
Dear Savvy Senior,
I own two dogs and a cat that I
would do almost anything for, but ex-
pensive veterinary bills put a strain
on my budget. Is pet insurance a
good idea?
Older Pet Owner
Dear Pet Owner,
If you're the kind of pet owner
who would do anything for their
furry family, including spending
thousands of dollars on medical care,
pet insurance definitely is an option
to consider. Here's what you should
know.
Rising Vet Cost~
The cost of owning a pet has gone
up in recent years. New technologies
now make it possible for pets to un-
dergo sophisticated medical treat-
ments for many life-threatening
diseases, just like humans. But these
treatments don't come cheap. That's
why pet insurance has gotten more
popular in recent years. More than 2
million pets are currently insured in
the U.S. and Canada, according to
the North American Pet Health In-
surance Association.
How Pet Plans Works
Pet insurance is actually very sim-
ilar to human health insurance. Pet
policies typically come with prerni- ,~
ums, deductibles, co-payments and;

caps that limit how much will be paid
out annually. But unlike people cov-
, erage, you usually have to pay the vet
bills in full and wait for reimburse-
ment from the insurer.
Pet policies vary greatly from
basic plans that cover only accidents
and illness, to comprehensive poli-
cies that provide complete nose-to-
tail protection including annual
checkups and vaccinations, spay-
ing/neutering and death benefits. You
should also be aware that pet policies
typically don't cover pre-existing
conditions, and premiums are gener-
ally .lower when your pet is young
and healthy.
Costs for pet insurance will also
vary by insurer and policy, but pre-
miums typically depend on factors
like the cost of veterinm-y care where
you live and the age and breed of the
pet. The average annual premium for
basic accident and illness coverage
was$516 per pet in 2017, while the
average claim paid was $278, ac-
