What are Policy Terms?
A policy term is a rule, requirement, expectation, or provision established in the contract with your pet insurance provider. Common policy terms surround topics such as payments, cancellation, nonrenewal, increased coverage, and fraud. Your policy terms will address these details so that you are aware of the requirements to remain insured, and ways that your policy can be voided, such as in the event of nonpayment or the discovery of fraudulent claims.
