Covering Yourself For Colic

Despite much greater understanding and advances in equine nutrition and veterinary science colic is still very much a common occurrence and is the leading cause of premature death in domestic horses.

 

In some cases colic can result in surgery, which is not only a very worrying time for any owner but can also be very costly.The veterinary industry themselves have raised concerns over the level of insurance cover available for colic surgery. Stating that with inevitable increases in costs, it was noted that in many cases a £5000 incident limit is no longer able to cover the expenses involved with this operation.

 

In order to ensure that KBIS customers have the protection they need you can now obtain cover for Colic Surgery up to £7500 under both our Gold and Platinum vet fee cover, an option that is not generally available elsewhere in the current UK market. Combined with the 15-month extension period available under Platinum vet fees, this market leading cover provides KBIS customers with the protection they need when it matters.
