American Alternative Insurance Corp’s filed pet insurance policy in Alabama (AL) states it pays for covered expenses related to necessary veterinary medical services incurred for accidental injury or illness affecting the pet [2]. It also pays for boarding kennel fees or advertising and reward costs associated with a covered incident [2]. Benefits are paid for covered incidents subject to the terms and conditions of the policy, including the deductible, per incident limit, and aggregate limit [1]. The policy covers 90% of reasonable and customary expenses for covered accidents or illnesses after the deductible is applied [2]. It also includes payment up to the annual benefit allowance for routine veterinary services and routine prescription medications listed in the attached Routine Care Benefit Allowance [2]. This does not appear in these excerpts — check the full policy for the specific list of routine services and medications.
