Here are the best tips to save on vet costs while using pet insurance.

Tip 1:

• Search and enroll sooner rather than later.

Why: Premiums for pet insurance are typically high if pets are older and thus likely have more health issues.

Tip 2:

• Use tools like Policygenius to compare various quotes.

Why: You can make a more informed decision by reading reviews, claim processing info, etc.

Tip 3:

• Try to avoid switching to a new provider later.

Why: The new one may not cover previous treatments for a pre-existing disorder.

Tip 4:

• Browse bundled insurance offers that offer pet insurance as an add-on and other such special offers.

Why: Some insurers offer special discounts and bundles for seniors, military members, pet adopters, etc.

Tip 5:

• If you're curious about a bundled offer read the fine print first though.

Why: The insurer may have set exclusions for pre-existing conditions.

Tip 6:

• Check if a plan has pet-incident or annual deductibles first. Why: Plans with higher deductibles generally have lower monthly premiums.
