Plan for the Expected with Mint Wellness by Pet Assure

We’re thrilled to welcome the newest member of the Synergy Pet Group family: Pet Assure’s pet wellness plan, Mint Wellness! Pet Assure’s veterinary discount plan has long been associated with affordable pet care and veterinary savings. Now, pet owners can now save even more with quick reimbursements on routine and annual pet care.

With the rising cost of veterinary care, it’s become more difficult for pet parents to provide the best care for their entire pet family. Many pet owners are feeling the pinch and are having to make difficult decisions about what level of pet care they can afford.

According to the latest data from Forbes and Global Market Insights, average annual vet costs for households with dogs increased 60% from 2020 to 2022, from $224 to $362. For households with cats, average annual costs increased a whopping 70% from 2020 to 2022, going from $189 to $321.

In addition, the November/December 2022 Forbes Advisor survey found that many dog owners have delayed an annual vet visit, vaccines or boosters, dental care, and spay/neuter due to cost.

“Pet care is evolving to include a higher level of healthcare and preventative medicine, and with that comes additional costs,” states Rachel Ostreicher, COO of Pet Assure. “Mint Wellness was created to help pet owners pay for routine care that traditional accident and illness insurance won’t cover.”

With Mint Wellness, pet parents can prepare for the many recurring expenses that come with owning a pet, not just unexpected illnesses or emergency trips to the vet clinic. They no longer need to compromise on essential vet care like vaccinations, wellness exams, bloodwork, preventatives, and dental services.

The new direct-to-consumer plan is available nationwide and provides coverage for routine pet care from any licensed U.S. veterinarian. There are no networks to join and no insurance claims to fill out. Members simply visit any veterinarian and pay for routine wellness services, then submit their invoice online for fast reimbursement. Plan coverage begins immediately upon enrollment, with no waiting periods or deductibles.

One of the best parts about Mint Wellness is that there are no exclusions or limitations based on age, breed, or pre-existing health conditions. All types of pets can receive wellness coverage, making it one of the most inclusive pet care plans on the market.

“Pet Assure is dedicated to making quality pet care accessible for all pet families,” states Becky Schaen, Director of Marketing at Pet Assure. “Our mission is to strengthen pet family bonds through innovation and inclusivity. We believe that all pets deserve high quality care, even older pets and pets who may already have health issues.”

Pet Assure’s new pet wellness plan offers pet parents the choice, protection, and savings they need to take the stress out of caring for their pets. It even includes access to ThePetTag, the digital ID tag and lost pet recovery service that returns lost pets to their owners faster than a microchip.

With Mint Wellness, keeping your furry family members healthy is effortless and affordable...as it should be. The perfect complement to Pet Assure’s veterinary discount plan, Mint Wellness can also be used alongside traditional accident and illness insurance to have comprehensive coverage for both routine and unexpected pet care.

“At Pet Assure, we cherish the bond people share with their pets,” relates Rachel. “We don’t think anyone should have to compromise their pets’ health and well-being due to the ever-rising cost of pet care. Pets are family, and family comes first!”
