     There are many options for pet insurance to choose from, and it can be difficult trying to figure out which one is best for your pet! Post Road Veterinary Hospital recommends Trupanion pet insurance. Trupanion is easy to use, covers 90% of the actual veterinary costs should a pet become sick or injured, and quickly reimburses policyholders. In these troubled economic times, it is comforting to have the peace of mind that your pet will be covered in an accident or other unforseen circumstance.

     The Trupanion Policy Overview states “Trupanion covers 90% of the actual costs of veterinary care should a pet become sick or injured. This includes diagnostic testing, surgeries, medications, supplements, therapeutic food, orthotic devices, prosthetic devices, and carts. Pet owners can choose any veterinarian, including emergency veterinary clinics and veterinary specialists.” Trupanion provides free online and phone customer service support 24/7- available when you need it most.   

     When your pet comes in for an examination, they are eligible for a no cost 30 day trial period of insurance. The special 30 Day Trial Registration Forms are available only at the hospital. Clients are strongly encouraged to contact Trupanion directly as soon as the 30 Day Trial is initiated, in order to learn as much information as possible by speaking with a Trupanion Customer Service Representative.
