Name of a health insurance plan for house pets

CONT

Feeling dogged by the high cost of veterinary treatment for your pet? "Montreal insurance broker Barry Nichol thinks he has the answer: Medipet/Ani-Maux, insurance for housepets. ... "Pet insurance works like any health insurance plan: a pet owner pays regular premiums, then when the animal gets sick or injured and an expensive veterinary treatment is needed, the lion's share of the costs are covered. "For instance, the Medipet/Ani-Maux policy (the French version of the name is a contraction of animal and maux, which means pain) pays 70 per cent of the costs of treatment, after the deductible, which varies according to the program".
