Administered by MetLife
Pets are like family. When a member of the family becomes sick or injured, you do whatever it takes to fix it. However, paying for the vet bills when the unexpected happens can be stressful. Now you can protect your pet(s) like you do your other family members! LSU partners with MetLife to provide Pet Insurance to its employees and their furry family members. Pet insurance can help reimburse you for unexpected vet bills. MetLife provides insurance for pets of all ages — even seniors — and employees can customize their deductible and reimbursement rates so they work best for their pet’s needs and their budget.
