Yeah.... You would think it would be better...
Trupanion only pays out 90% (80% at a specialist) and they
don't cover Exam Fees.... which really isn't bad unless you
have something like I had where most of the bill was the exam.
The account I have set up is for Emergency only... just as his
health insurance would be... really in Hopes that I will never
have to use it. I have everything automatically put in there.
I don't even look at it and have No Idea what is in it. I just went
and looked at it and since February, there is already $1,509.47 in it.
That is Minus the $172.00 ER Visit.
I also have to say I also have a separate credit card set aside, as well.
The guy at the bank was joking me about the account and the card and
I told him I was going to have Riley's name put on it!!
I know for some people it really is Great!!
Each person should definitely do their research and read all of the
fine print, etc. That is what I did, and even though I had always
heard more horror stories rather than good stories....
It was always my intention to do the insurance for at least the first
couple of years. I got him insured the day I brought him home....
once he got to be a couple of years old, and we got a couple of yearly
exams out of the way, I reevaluated and decided to do what I am
doing, now.
