Frequently Asked Questions About Massachusetts Pet Insurance

    One emergency can cost thousands. Insurance turns unpredictable bills into manageable premiums.

  • Can I use any vet?

    Most plans let you visit any licensed vet, specialist, or ER in the U.S.

  • Are pre-existing conditions covered?

    Typically no, though some carriers reconsider cured conditions after a symptom-free period.

  • How do deductibles and reimbursement work?

    You pay the vet, then submit a claim; the insurer reimburses your covered percentage after the deductible.
