Here’s How Pet Insurance Works
Pet parents should never have to make a difficult decision about their pet’s health for financial reasons. Pet insurance can help reimburse the cost of eligible veterinary and pet healthcare expenses. Here’s how it works:
Visit any licensed vet in the U.S. or Canada.
Pay the bill and submit a claim.
Get reimbursed directly for eligible expenses by direct deposit or check.
OnePack Plan’s simple claims and reimbursements help employees focus on what matters most: their pet’s well-being.
