The Pet Insurance Business
- The pet insurance business has expanded greatly in
recent years and as a result there are many companies offering policies
which may vary greatly in cost and in the level of cover provided.
-
- At West Mount Vets whilst we actively encourage the
concept of pet insurance we are not a broker. Since new
FSA regulations were implemented in January 2005 we as a practice
are restricted as to how much we can help our client with insurance
claims.
-
- The excess payable on policies is becoming increasingly
complex with huge variations and many companies asking you to pay a
percentage of the claim instead of or as well as a fixed excess.
-
- As a result of these changes we are asking that you
pay us for your pets' treatment at the time and then claim the costs
back from your insurers. We will continue to complete the veterinary
fees section of the claim form as a free of charge service to you.
-
- If you are genuinely unable to pay for your pets'
treatment at the time or if you have any questions then please speak
to a member of staff.
-
- Thank you.
