At what price of your vets bill do you then claim on your insurance?
I've never claimed on mine but my boy has had a horrid cough for a few weeks that hasn't gone and the vet came yesterday. He said that it could either be that he has a deep lung infection or it could be allergy related, but as he's never suffered with allergies before and this would be an extreme reaction, he's going to have a scope today and a sample taken from his lung. Then there's the treatment on top of that whatever that may be.
I've always been inclined to just pay the vets bill myself unless it was a substantial amount, however a friend said that because your insurance cross reference with your vet for your insurance renewal, you might as well claim as they can penalise you anyway even if you haven't claimed. Has anyone found that?
My excess is £125 so would you be inclined to claim for this? I have a feeling the bill will be about £400 (at the least) with 2 x visits, scope, samples tested and treatment.
