NEA Member Benefits is now offering one of the nation’s premier pet insurance products to NEA members—Pets Best Insurance.
If you have a pet, you know it can be expensive to care for your furry friend. The American Veterinary Medical Association estimates that certain procedures, such as treating a broken leg, can cost $2,000 to $5,000. Surgically removing swallowed items, such as sticks or toys, can cost $1,000 to $3,000. The good news is pet insurance can help cover certain procedures and illnesses.
Pets Best plans offer:
Rates start as low as $19 per month plus discounts available for members. Additional discounts are available if you pay annually or insure more than one pet.
Insurance plans are offered and administered by Pets Best LLC, underwritten by Aetna Insurance Company of Connecticut (AICC) and endorsed by the Group Health & Life Insurance Trust of the American Veterinary Medical Association. In some states, plans may be underwritten by North Pointe Casualty Insurance Company or North Pointe Insurance Company.
As of July 2009, pet insurance underwritten by AICC is available in 42 states plus the District of Columbia. Pets Best offers pet insurance in all 50 states except Alaska.
