EQUINE INSURANCE POLICIES -
(800)230-8384
MORTALITY POLICY
Livestock Mortality is a Life Insurance policy
for your horse, with you as beneficiary. It is
an all risk policy covering death as a result
of injury, illness, or humane
destruction. Mortality also includes loss as a
result of theft. Most policies (depending on
age) include a twelve-month extension on the
mortality coverage if a sickness or injury to
your horse is reported during your policy
term. A veterinarian's exam is required on
horses valued over $50,000.
MAJOR MEDICAL
Major medical is a health insurance
endorsement that reimburses the veterinarian's
fees for surgery, major illness and
disease. This coverage will help you control
veterinary expenses for unforeseen events
related to the health of your animal. This
coverage is available for horses 30 days thru
15 years.
SURGICAL
In lieu of major medical coverage, a surgical
endorsement is available. This endorsement
pays for reasonable and customary charges for
emergency surgical treatment necessitated by accident,
injury or illness.
LOSS OF USE
If your horse becomes totally and permanently
incapable of fulfilling the functions for
which it is used, as stated on your policy,
but its condition does
not necessitate destruction for humane
reasons, you may suffer a financial loss. Loss Of Use will pay you 75%
of the
animal's value if
you choose economic destruction and the
insurance company may take possession and
title to the horse. This coverage requires
radiographs and is limited to certain
disciplines. Loss Of Use is only available to
horses 12 years and younger.
INFERTILITY
This endorsement covers your stallion if during
the policy period he becomes
permanently impotent, infertile, or incapable
of serving mares.
This incapacity must result from an accident,
illness, or disease which occurs during the
policy period.
