Insurance

Preparing for the unexpected

Understanding veterinary insurance

Veterinary insurance should be peace of mind and never a reason for stress.

Our team has handled equine insurance enquiries and dealt with equine insurance claims for many years.

We advise our clients helping them understanding their position with equine insurance companies throughout all the life of their horses.

So happy with the treatment provided by Corrado and his team, just great to know they provide the care they do

5 and 2-stages vetting

These are UK recognised standards for pre-purchase examination which have been established by the RCVS and BEVA bodies.

Such protocols allow pre-purchase examinations to follow a format that allows to inspect most conditions that may be relevant to a buyer.

Insurance and pre-purchase exams

From the early stages of a horse pre-purchase exam, our vets will discuss any condition arisen during a vetting and will advise on the risks that these carry in relation to an intended insurance cover.

This is a key topic for an equine buyer, as it represents one of the 3 blocks upon which a pre-purchase exam (vetting) is built. We help future equine owners to understand how far the risk related to a horse’s condition may impact their ability to obtain insurance cover, and thereby help them avoid frustrating insurance complications following a purchase.
