Lemonade’s Preventative Care options provide comprehensive coverage for your pet’s routine health needs. By adding a Preventative Care package to your pet’s Lemonade health insurance policy, you can ensure that your furry friend receives regular preventative care to maintain their overall health and well-being.
This coverage helps manage and reduce out-of-pocket expenses for routine veterinary visits for everything from vaccinations to routine dental cleanings, giving you peace of mind while supporting your pet’s long-term health.
There’s a good chance you’re already paying more out-of-pocket than the cost of our new preventative care packages for your pet’s ongoing health care, and by adding it to a Lemonade policy you’ll be covered for all kinds of things that help keep your pet healthy—like your annual wellness exam, blood tests, vaccines, and more.
Lemonade’s Preventative Care package
Adding the Preventative package to your pet’s base policy comes with a number of advantages. Basically, Lemonade can help cover most of your vet bills, depending on how you’ve customized your policy. Plus, Preventative Care is not subject to your policy’s annual deductible.
You get covered for up to three vital vaccinations, as well as an annual blood test that can help detect health problems. You’ll also be covered for annual screening tests for parasites (catching an issue early could spare you treatment costs from $400 to $1,000) and heartworm, as well as an annual physical for your cat or dog.
Here’s what can be covered as a part of our Preventative Care Package*:
- 1 Wellness Exam
- 3 Vaccines
- Wellness testing:
- Fecal or Internal Parasite Test
- Bloodwork
- Heartworm or FeLV/FIV Test
Lemonade’s Preventative+ Care package
Want to get even more for your pet? We’ve got options if you’re ready to level up…
The Preventative+ plan includes all of the benefits we’ve already discussed, and it also allows us to reimburse you for heartworm or flea/tick medication—as well as routine dental cleaning.
For most dogs, dental cleaning requires anesthesia and can last over an hour. If your pet is young and healthy, a regular cleaning could be $500 to $1,000, on average. That’s not a typo. For an older dog with oral health issues, the cost could actually be over $1,000. That’s a big hit to your finances, and it might make the Preventative+ plan a good option to consider.
While dental cleaning bills for cats are more modest—sometimes as low as $200—certain feline teeth can require extra attention, bumping the cost of vet bills. It wouldn’t be unheard of to spend $1,000 on your cat’s dental care.
Keep in mind, you can only add our Puppy/Kitten Preventative Care package if your pet is under two years old.
Here’s what can be covered as a part of our Preventative+ Care Package*:
- 1 Wellness Exam
- 3 Vaccines
- Wellness testing:
- Fecal or Internal Parasite Test
- Bloodwork
- Heartworm or FeLV/FIV Test
- Flea/Tick or Heartworm Medication
- Routine Dental Cleaning
