No. With Petplan, coverage for hereditary and chronic conditions are included on all plans as standard.* That’s the Petplan advantage.
Like all pet insurance providers, pre-existing conditions are excluded from coverage under Petplan pet insurance policies. However, we recognize there are two types of pre-existing conditions: those that can be cured, and those that cannot be cured. Some examples of a curable condition include, but are not limited to: respiratory infections, urinary tract infections, vomiting, diarrhea and bladder infections. If your pet has experienced a curable condition prior to enrolling in a Petplan pet insurance policy, the condition, while pre-existing, may be eligible for coverage after an exclusionary period.

No, Petplan pet insurance policies do not cover routine care. Our more than 40 years of experience shows us that insurance for regular, scheduled treatments can come at the cost of coverage of your pet’s unexpected, and sometimes critical, health care costs. Our policy is designed to give you the most comprehensive protection against unexpected vet bills for injuries and illnesses.
