New Jersey's "Pet Insurance Act" establishes regulations for pet insurance policies, including consumer protections and disclosure requirements.
The "Pet Insurance Act" sets forth a comprehensive legal framework for the sale of pet insurance in New Jersey. It mandates that insurers clearly disclose policy exclusions, waiting periods, and the basis for claim payments. The act requires insurers to prove preexisting condition exclusions and prohibits insurers from requiring veterinary examinations for policy renewals. It also mandates that wellness programs be clearly differentiated from insurance policies. The act includes a "free look" period for policyholders to review and return their policies for a refund.
