This article is exploring what pet owners actually value in insurance cover and considering how insurers might better meet those needs.
What is pet insurance?
At its core, pet insurance helps to cover the cost of vet bills when a pet gets sick or injured. In Australia, it typically comes in three forms:
- Accident-only which covers vet costs arising from accidental injury
- Accident and illness which covers vet costs arising from both accidental injury and illness
- Accident and illness with routine care which adds cover for “routine care” expenses, such as vaccinations or dental check-ups
