How to Compare Pet Insurance
| Policy feature | What to check | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Hereditary & congenital conditions | Whether coverage is included or excluded | Breed-associated conditions can otherwise be carved out |
| Waiting periods | Accident, illness and orthopedic waiting periods | A condition appearing during the wait may become excluded |
| Reimbursement | Percentage, deductible and annual limit | These determine your real out-of-pocket cost |
| Pre-existing conditions | Definition and look-back rules | Most policies do not cover existing problems |
| Exam fees & diagnostics | Whether consultations, imaging and testing are included | Treatment cost is not the only part of a veterinary bill |
