Care Credit

A Care Credit account can be a useful alternative to pet insurance. Imagine if your dog has a surgery that you didn't plan for and your insurance doesn't cover all the costs.

If you are having trouble paying for these expenses, this type of account can be a good alternative to can help give you payment options.

It's fairly easy to apply, and it is actually endorsed by several professional organizations.

It is accepted by over 100,000 providers, so you can use it a places other than the vet clinic (like at the dentist). It is just like a credit card, so you can use it over and over again without having to re-apply.

You can check online to see if your veterinarian takes this type of care, or it may be best to just call the vet clinic because some veterinary clinics may not be listed.

You have to contact your clinic because not all practices offer every plan, so you have to find out what plans they offer.

Some plans offer no interest if you pay the bill within three, six, 12, or 18 months.

But if you cannot pay off your bill in over two years you pay a 13.9% interest rate which is the starting rate after 24, 36, 48, or 60 months, depending on your plan.

Many veterinary clinics offer credit payment plans as a convenient way to help clients pay for pet procedures that they might not have been able to otherwise afford.

This removes the cost barriers and allows you and the vet to focus on the treatment options and not on the financial aspects.

If your veterinarian does not offer Care Credit refer them to this as this could be a good thing for their clinic to offer.

Approval is based on your credit application and past credit history.

***Remember, even though you may get 0% interest initially, you need to pay it off as quickly as possible.***
