Lakeside Insurance Brokers now offers medical insurance for cats and dogs. 

If you haven’t heard any buzz about pet insurance yet, chances are you’ll be hearing more in the near future. In recent years, pet medical insurance has been growing rapidly in the United States.

Did you know that over 30% of pets in the U.K. have pet medical insurance? While 65% of U.S. Households include at least one pet, only 2% of those pets are insured today. That’s changing quickly due to advancements in pet medicine. In fact, in the past five years, the U.S. pet insurance industry has doubled in size.

Lakeside Insurance Brokers has partnered with Auto-Owners Insurance and Figo Pet Insurance to offer pet insurance to those in our community. Figo covers examinations, diagnostics and lab tests, surgery, treatments, hospitalization and prescription medications for accidents/injuries and illnesses. In addition, they offer chronic diseases coverage and continual coverage for chronic conditions as long as the condition is not pre-existing and has not occurred during the waiting period.

“It can become financially difficult for many people if their pet is injured or faces an unexpected illness. Pet Insurance offers peace of mind to pet parents,” said Brock Fluegge, president of Lakeside Insurance. 

“Pet health insurance starts around $20 a month depending on the breed and other factors. By purchasing Figo Pet Insurance through Lakeside Insurance, you’ll receive a special discount.”

Once your pet is insured, you’ll have access to Figo’s revolutionary pet portal. The Figo Pet Cloud lets you file a claim, store all of your pet’s records, track important reminders, and more.
