Three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to three months ended June 30, 2023. Total revenue increased by $44.2 million, or 16%, to $314.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Revenue from our subscription business segment increased by $35.4 million, or 20%, to $208.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. This increase was primarily driven by an 8% increase in total subscription pet months (the sum of pet months for each month during a period) for policies underwritten by Trupanion and a 11% increase in monthly average revenue per pet. Revenue from our other business segment increased by $8.9 million, or 9%, to $106.2 million, for the three months ended June 30, 2024. This increase was primarily driven by a 16% increase in monthly average revenue per pet in this segment, offset by a 6% decrease in pet months in this segment.
Current report
Total cost of revenue for our other business segment increased by $9.1 million, or 10%, to $98.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by a $5.9 million, or 34%, increase in other cost of revenue as well as a $3.2 million, or 4%, increase in veterinary invoice expense. The 34% increase in other cost of revenue was primarily driven by increases in managing general agent ("MGA") and underwriting fees, which reflects higher earned premium and lower loss ratio in the other business segment. The 4% increase in veterinary invoice expense was primarily driven by a 10% increase in veterinary invoice expense per pet, offset by a 6% decrease in pet months in this segment. Cost of revenue for the other business segment increased from 92% to 93% of revenue year-over-year.
Current report
Six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to six months ended June 30, 2023.

This increase was driven by a $44.6 million, or 17%, increase in veterinary invoice expense and a $5.7 million, or 17%, increase in other cost of revenue. The 17% increase in veterinary invoice expense was driven by a 10% increase in total subscription pet months for policies underwritten by Trupanion and a 7% increase in veterinary invoice expense per pet month. The 17% increase in other cost of revenue was primarily due to general increases in costs attributable to growth in our membership.

We operate in two aggregated reporting segments: subscription business and other business. We generate revenue in our subscription business segment primarily by subscription fees from direct-to-consumer products. We operate our subscription business segment similar to other subscription-based businesses, with a focus on achieving a target margin prior to our new pet acquisition expense and acquiring as many pets as possible at our targeted average estimated internal rate of return. Within our subscription business, we also provide "Powered by Trupanion" pet insurance product offerings marketed by third parties and, in Canada, low and medium average revenue per pet ("ARPU") products marketed under the brand names, Furkin and PHI Direct. We are the underwriter and provide a full suite of services and support for these products. They are designed to align with the target margin profile of our subscription business segment. Within our subscription business segment, we also offer products in Continental Europe, which are currently underwritten using third-party underwriters.

Other business segment. Our other business segment primarily includes other product offerings that have been materially different from those in our subscription business segment. In addition, we expect the growth rate of this segment to be materially different from our subscription business segment. We do not undertake marketing efforts for and are not the primary interface with the customers of the third parties for whom we underwrite other business segment policies. Our relationships in our other business segment are generally subject to termination provisions and are non-exclusive. Accordingly, we have limited influence on the volume of business of this segment. Loss of an entire program via contract termination could result in the associated policies and revenue being lost over a period of 12 to 18 months, which could have a material impact on our results of operations. In some cases, we have structured exclusive relationships, but those relationships have been and may continue to be subject to limitations on the number of enrolled pets as to which we will write policies for the third party. We may enter into additional relationships in this segment in the future, if we believe they will be beneficial, which could impact our operating results.

Current wording
As of June 30, 2024, our insurance entities collectively held $91.2 million in cash and cash equivalents, to be used for operating expenses for our insurance entities, $152.8 million in short-term investments and $284.4 million in other current assets. Most of the assets in our insurance entities are subject to certain capital and dividend rules and regulations prescribed by jurisdictions in which they are authorized to operate.
Previous wording
The majority of our investments are held by our insurance entities to satisfy risk-based capital requirements of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC). The NAIC requirements provide a method for analyzing the minimum amount of risk-based capital (statutory capital and surplus plus other adjustments) appropriate for an insurance company to support its overall business operations, taking into account the risk characteristics of the company’s assets, liabilities and certain other items. An insurance company found to have insufficient statutory capital based on its risk-based capital ratio may be subject to varying levels of additional regulatory oversight depending on the level of capital inadequacy. APIC must hold certain capital amounts in order to comply with the statutory regulations and, therefore, we cannot use these amounts for general operating purposes without regulatory approval. As our business grows, the amount of capital we are required to maintain to satisfy our risk-based capital requirements will also increase, though risk-based capital requirements also take our overall rate of growth into consideration. Recently, our other business segment growth has slowed and, currently, we expect that to continue, which would reduce capital requirements. APIC was required to maintain at least $120.1 million and $137.6 million of risk-based capital as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

In 2021, we established two new wholly-owned insurance subsidiaries, ZPIC and QPIC, domiciled in Missouri and Nebraska, respectively, and in 2022, we established a new wholly-owned insurance subsidiary, GPIC, domiciled in Canada. We have funded required statutory capital to each of these new subsidiaries. As of March 31, 2024, neither ZPIC, QPIC nor GPIC have begun underwriting any insurance policies, accordingly, each of these entities are currently overcapitalized relative to traditional risk-based capital requirements. We formed these insurance subsidiaries to provide us flexibility as to the insurance entity we use to market and write policies.
