New
Policy regarding Insurance Claims
As from January 2011 we will generally no longer be processing direct
claims. We would ask that all treatment/medication be paid directly to
us at the end of each consult/operation etc and claimed back from your
insurers. There will also be a small administration charge for processing
direct claims.
There are some exceptions, so please ask for our information letter. We
thank you for your co-operation |
| Fees
A modern veterinary practice has to generate sufficient income to invest
in equipment and training as well as covering running costs and salaries.
Our charges are calculated to be fair to both our clients and ourselves.
Payment
All treatment
must be paid for immediately. As the cost of investigations and on-going
treatment can be considerable we are always willing to provide an estimate
for treatment we plan to carry out so please do not be reluctant to
ask. We do have a payment policy for large unexpected treatment charges
but this must be discussed with the Office Manager at the earliest opportunity.

Are
you covered?
Illness or an accident can prove expensive and often happens when you
are least prepared financially to cope with it. We strongly recommend
that you take out pet insurance to cover you against this risk. Insurance
takes a lot of the worry out of pet illness and it means that we can all
concentrate on the best care for your pet rather than cost.
All puppies and kittens are offered 4 weeks free insurance with Petplan
when they first visit the surgery. We also have leaflets in our waiting
room from various insurance companies we find to be reliable and fair
in their dealings with clients.

Pet
Insurance
Did
you know 1 in 3 pets may require unexpected veterinary treatment each
year?* Whilst advances in veterinary medicine mean we can do more for
your pet, treatment costs can soon mount up. We recommend Petplan insurance
to all our clients to help cover unexpected vets bills.
You
may be surprised to hear that you are more likely to claim on your pet
insurance than your car or household policies (Allianz Insurance plc).
In fact, in our experience if you are one of the few people who don’t
need to claim on your pet insurance you really are very lucky indeed!
It’s
important to be aware that not all pet insurance is the same. Some policies
limit the amount of time or money that you can claim for. Don’t
just shop around on price alone.
At
Inshes Veterinary Centre we recommend Petplan insurance for the following
reasons:
·
With Petplan’s Covered for Life guarantee your veterinary fees
cover is renewed each year no matter how much you claim.
· Petplan doesn’t place exclusions at renewal on their
Covered for Life policy so on-going conditions such as eczema continue
to be covered by the policy.
· Petplan won’t increase your premium or excess just
because you make a claim.
· Petplan is a pet insurance specialist so they understand
the animal market and work closely with vets, charities and breeders.
