CLAIMS emergencies
The essentials of emergency response and claims reporting.
Report a claim for your horse
DO
- Report a loss immediately
- Notify the company in advance if a horse is going to undergo any sort of veterinary procedure, medical or surgical, whether the procedure is covered or not, including, but not limited to, castration
- Contact your veterinarian
- In the event of a mortality claim, make arrangements for a necropsy–as one will likely be required by the insurance company
- Call police immediately in cases of theft, shootings, or vehicular involvement
DON’T
- Have the horse destroyed without the insurance company’s consent
- Have the horse removed prior to having an autopsy completed
- Neglect to file a police report if one is required
