Claim Example: b cell metaplasm (rectal tumor) in Dachshund

April 7th, 2011

In my previous post, I mentioned Maggie, the 2 year oldDachshund, who was treated for a rectal tumor and the fact that she is still alive at age 5 and well enough to have her teeth cleaned.

I thought you might be interested in the details of the cost of her treatment back in 2008.

Thats surgery to remove the mass and 6 months of chemotherapy totalling $8,038.05.

Maggie has not had any claims since these treatments until she recently had her periodontal work done in March 2011.

Maggies policy has a $500 annual deductible, 10% copay and a $10,000 annual maximum and drugs/dental coverage was included. Her premiums have ranged from $21 a month back in 2007 to $32 a month in 2011.

What do you think?
