Paying for Veterinary Care

If you find my website information to be useful, I encourage you to purchase a copy of Speaking for Spot. It will provide the fundamental tools and skills you need to make the most of the information and suggestions provided on my website and its associated links. Speaking for Spot will help you navigate the expensive and often overwhelming world of veterinary medicine. You will learn how to effectively hold up your end of the veterinarian/client communication process, solicit explanations of the risks and benefits of all diagnostic and therapeutic options, and have frank discussion about costs. As an informed medical advocate, you will have the ability to make the choice that is best for your pet as well as your own peace of mind. Speaking for Spot may be the best $14.00 (through Amazon.com) you spend in 2010! I would love to hear any ways in which Speaking for Spot has helped you and your pets.

Please read Chapter 10 in Speaking for Spot called "Money Matters." You will find an overview of payment options and a guide to evaluating pet health insurance providers and whether or not such insurance makes sense for you and your pets.
