Pros

  • Policies are customizable. ASPCA offers two policies to fit varying budgets. Pet owners can choose from different annual limits, deductibles and reimbursement rates.
  • Covers special costs. ASPCA Pet Health Insurance is one of the few pet insurance companies that will cover a cat or dog's behavioral issues and end-of-life expenses.

Cons

  • There's a waiting period. Policies have a 14-day waiting period before owners can use the coverage for accidents, illnesses and knee ligament injuries. If a knee or ligament condition occurs before the policy goes into effect or during a waiting period, any future ailments associated with this injury won't be covered.
  • Pre-existing conditions are not covered. However, this is common among pet insurance companies.

Policy and discounts

With ASPCA Pet Health Insurance, you can choose from two levels of coverage and select the annual limit, deductible, and copay/reimbursement rate that works for your budget.

Accident-only coverage

This is ValuePenguin's pick for Best Budget-Friendly Plan among the pet insurance policies we reviewed.

This plan covers various types of accidents, including broken bones, swallowed objects, car accidents and poison ingestions. Owners can expect to be reimbursed for diagnostic procedures, lab tests, X-rays, imaging scans, surgeries, hospital stays, prescription medications and veterinary office exams. Any pet over the age of 8 weeks is eligible, regardless of health. However, this plan won't cover illnesses.

You can choose to add preventive coverage to this policy, which will cover additional care, though this comes at an additional cost. Reimbursements for preventive coverage are based on a schedule determined by the insurer.

Complete coverage

At this level, ASPCA Pet Health Insurance gives you more benefits, such as coverage for:

  • Accidents
  • Illnesses
  • Hereditary and congenital diseases
  • Alternative therapies
  • Behavioral treatments

You'll also have the option of adding preventive coverage.

Discounts and promotions

ASPCA Pet Health Insurance offers a discount of up to 10% for owners who insure multiple pets on the base plan premium, excluding Level 1.
