Wellness Plan Differences: Spot Pet Plans vs. Prudent Plans

Wellness care for your pets is essential, but whether or not to include certain parts of wellness care in your insurance plan is another matter that can differ for each pet family.

Spot Pet Insurance and Prudent Pet Insurance both offer add-on wellness coverage options that can supplement a core Accident & Illness plan or an Accident-only plan for an additional cost. However, there are some key differences.

Base plans provided by Spot include coverage for microchip implantation. In order to get coverage for microchip implantation with Prudent Pet Insurance plans, you need to add on a wellness plan to your base plan for an additional cost.

Microchipping is a helpful way to find your pet should they become lost.

With the Gold Preventive Care Coverage add-on option offered by Spot, you are covered for up to $100 for dental cleanings annually, or $150 for dental cleanings annually with the Platinum Preventive Care Coverage option. See our preventive care coverage plan breakdowns for more details!

At Prudent, on the other hand, three levels of wellness coverage add-on options are available – low, medium, and high – and include $0, $40, and $60 of coverage, respectively, for dental cleanings annually. Prudent also requires pets to have routine dental exams to qualify receive reimbursement for dental illnesses.

Exam Fees For Covered Conditions Are Included in Base plans provided by Spot

At Spot Pet Insurance, the base plans we provide include coverage for exam fees for covered conditions.

In contrast, with Prudent Pet Insurance plans, you’ll have to purchase an additional add-on to get coverage for exam fees for covered conditions.

Prescription Food Coverage

Spot Pet Insurance plans include coverage for Rx food and supplements when they’re prescribed by a licensed vet to treat covered accidents and illnesses (not for general maintenance or weight management).

Prudent plans only cover Rx food when it is prescribed to treat existing bladder stones and crystals in urine.
