The age at which a dog may be sold is attached to the age of weaning. Most breeds are completely weaned by 8 weeks old, but smaller breeds are more delicate and require a longer time with their mother. Any puppy being considered for sale should be comfortable eating independently of its mother.
The cost sharing ranges from 80/20 to even 50/50. For example, if your coinsurance is 80/20, that means that your insurer covers 80% of annual medical expenses and you pay the remaining 20%. The cost sharing stops when medical expenses reach your out-of-pocket maximum, which usually is between $1,000 and $5,000.
The deductible resets yearly. Coinsurance: Coinsurance is a percentage of a medical charge that you pay, with the rest paid by your health insurance plan, after your deductible has been met. For example, if you have a 20% coinsurance, you pay 20% of each medical bill, and your health insurance will cover 80%. Out-of-pocket maximum: The most you could have to pay in one year, out of pocket, for your health care before your insurance covers 100% of the bill.
