Plan Options for Dogs & Cats

A deductible is the amount that must be paid out of pocket before insurance reimbursement begins. Pets Best Insurance plans have per-incident deductibles, which means the deductible must be met for each separate incident. An incident is defined as a specifically identifiable accident or illness. Recurring and/or chronic conditions are considered as one incident. The advantage of a per-incident deductible over an annual deductible is that if your pet has a chronic condition, the deductible only needs to be met one time and not once per year.
All Pets Best Insurance plans reimburse up to 80% for covered services, after a deductible, up to the per-incident limit of the plan you choose. The per-incident limit is the maximum amount Pets Best Insurance will reimburse you for any one incident. An incident is defined as a specifically identifiable accident or illness. If a pet develops a chronic or recurring condition after the waiting period, Pets Best Insurance will continue to cover treatment costs until the per-incident limit has been met.

Our Plans Cover Accidents and Illnesses

When your pet is covered by Pets Best Insurance, you can use any licensed veterinarian anywhere in the world. We don't use networks and we don't tell your veterinarian how much he or she can charge.

In addition to standard accident and illness coverage, including emergency care, you'll also have coverage for alternative treatments including acupuncture and chiropractic therapy.

Our plans have some of the shortest waiting periods in the industry – just 3 days for accidents and 14 days for illnesses and routine care coverage (if purchased.)
