Types of Pet Insurance Coverage

What does pet insurance cover?

Pet insurance coverage can be customized to your pet's budget and health needs through Progressive Pet Insurance by Pets Best. You can choose to get coverage for only accidental injuries or for accidents and illnesses — the comprehensive and most popular option. You can also add preventive care to your comprehensive plan if you want your pet's routine vet visits and procedures covered.

What does pet insurance not cover?

Pet insurance doesn't cover pre-existing conditions and non-medical needs, such as holistic therapies, food, supplements, boarding, grooming, taxes, administration fees, waste disposal fees, transportation fees, or shipping and handling fees.

Elective and preventive procedures are not covered by the BestBenefit or Accident Only plans. Coverage for preventative care is only available with the BestWellness and EssentialWellness plans, which can be added on to your BestBenefit coverage. Parasite testing, treatment, and prevention aren't covered, unless you have a BestWellness or EssentialWellness plan (and then, only up to the amounts listed in the preventative care chart).
