To help us progress your claim, please ask your Veterinary Practice
to complete all sections on pages 3 and 4 of this claim pack.
Points to note…
Please read your policy documents to ensure you know which level of cover you have and what you’re
covered for.
The vet fee limits applicable to each condition are dependent on the policy limits in force at the time
the condition first started. These may not be the same as our current policy wording or if you have
changed your level of vet fees cover.
Your Vet Fee excess applies to each separate condition. If a claim includes costs for more than one
condition (e.g. multiple lumps that do not have the same diagnosis) an excess is applied per condition.
All cover for ongoing claims is subject to your policy remaining in force.
If any details for the pet on this form (e.g. age, breed) are dierent to the information we hold then this
will delay the claim
Either you or your vet can email / send the claim form back to us.
It’s your responsibility to check the accuracy of all information provided on this form.

Important Information for the attending Vet
Lump Claims
Each lump type that has the same diagnosis will be treated as one condition and subject to its own policy limit.
Therefore you will need to split any claims where multiple lumps have been treated.
Histological/cytological diagnosis. Each lump with a dierent pathological diagnosis is treated as a separate
condition and any future lumps with the same diagnosis will be a continuation of that claim.
Lipoma – If the vet believes this to be the diagnosis, no histology or cytology is required.
Any lumps other than lipomas that have not been diagnosed by histology or cytology are treated as one
condition as an undiagnosed lump. Any future lumps that are not diagnosed will be classed as a continuation
of that claim.
