Without pet insurance, you will be paying out of pocket for all medical (veterinary) bills \u2013 just like with human health insurance.<\/p>\n<p>Pet insurance differs from human health insurance as it does not use networks. You can visit any licensed veterinarian in the U.S. and some plans will permit you to see licensed veterinarians overseas if you\u2019re traveling.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2742\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pawboost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/puppy-919223_1280.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"853\" data-wp-pid=\"2742\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em><span class=\"caption\">Photo Credit:\u00a0skeeze via Pixabay<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<h2>Why should I get pet insurance?<\/h2>\n<p>Without pet insurance, you will pay out of pocket for all veterinary bills.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Example from Embrace:\u00a0<\/strong>After being hit by a car, your dog is faced with some serious injuries.
