UVP - 224 - Will Pet Insurance Be Like Health Insurance (i.e. Broken)?

Alison Lambert joins Dr. Andy Roark to discuss what can be learned about pet insurance in the United States from pet insurance in the UK and Australia. Both the UK and Australia have traditionally had much greater utilization of pet insurance by pet owners, and as a result, pet insurance in those countries looks quite a bit different than it does in the US. Now, as the market for pet insurance in the United States grows by leaps and bounds, what changes can we expect as more and more pet owners acquire insurance?
