Bird Health Insurance

Postby pfinarffle » Sun Mar 21, 2010 3:16 pm

Does anyone in the US have health insurance for their flock? Am researching whether or not it's worth it. Seems like some insurers will reimburse you fully for routine check-ups, which is great. But what about birds with a "pre-existing condition" ie known, chronic illness. Can they be denied insurance? Am wondering what others' experiences have been, and which insurers they might've gone under. Any input appreciated!
