Download or read book Vetnology written by Paul E Love and published by . This book was released on 2020-02-10 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For most pet owners their furry, feathered or scaled companion is considered a part of the family. When illness or injury strikes, they want the best treatment available, the same as they would for any human member of the family. The problem is that vet bills, like every other type of medical care, have been steadily increasing in recent years and major medical problems can cost hundreds or thousands of dollars - dollars that the pet owner may not have. Now, more than ever, the ability to pay those kinds of bills can be the difference between life-saving treatment or being forced to have your pet put down.One answer for pet owners who don't have the ability to spend large sums of money on veterinarian bills is pet insurance. Just like health insurance for people, pet insurance can provide coverage for many types of accidents or illnesses. It can help pay for everything from initial examinations to emergency surgery to continuing treatments. There are other options if it turns out that pet insurance is too expensive or won't offer coverage for your pet. Those options (pet credit cards, veterinary discounts, donation programs and others) will also be covered in this book. Hopefully the material covered here will help you as a pet owner decide what you need to do about protecting your pet or pets. Once an injury or serious illness occurs it may be too late to arrange for financial help. Take a few minutes now and see what you can do to plan for an emergency before something happens to your dog, cat, or other companion.Note: This book only deals with insurance in the United States.

Download or read book Risky Business written by Liran Einav and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2023-01-31 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An engaging and accessible examination of what ails insurance markets—and what to do about it—by three leading economists Why is dental insurance so crummy? Why is pet insurance so expensive? Why does your auto insurer ask for your credit score? The answer to these questions lies in understanding how insurance works. Unlike the market for other goods and services—for instance, a grocer who doesn’t care who buys the store’s broccoli or carrots—insurance providers are more careful in choosing their customers, because some are more expensive than others. Unraveling the mysteries of insurance markets, Liran Einav, Amy Finkelstein, and Ray Fisman explore such issues as why insurers want to know so much about us and whether we should let them obtain this information; why insurance entrepreneurs often fail (and some tricks that may help them succeed); and whether we’d be better off with government-mandated health insurance instead of letting businesses, customers, and markets decide who gets coverage and at what price. With insurance at the center of divisive debates about privacy, equity, and the appropriate role of government, this book offers clear explanations for some of the critical business and policy issues you’ve often wondered about, as well as for others you haven’t yet considered.
