nebulisation and Insurance

[stclerk]

Hi does any one have to nebulise their parrot daily?

My Congo African Grey, George has to be nebulised three times daily using a medication/disinfectant known as F10 prescribed by the avian vet. He is also currently receiving antibiotics, as he has a respiratory problem.

My insurers have also written to say they will no longer cover Georges vet bills for anything to do with his respiratory system but they still want the same premium.:angry: Is this normal?

Yes, the pet insurance companies are notorious for being very vague in their policies, exceptions and maximum $$$ per year allowed.

 

Every company is different, so it's up to you to read and interpret it. If you find they are in error, relentlessly go after them to re-evaluate their determination.

 

Not much else I have in the way of information or suggestions Steve.

 

Why don't you introduce yourself in the Welcome Room? It's great to have you here and we look forward to hearing more from you. :-)

Yes please introduce yourself in the welcome room so we can get to know you better and your gorgeous George.

I would like to know your insurance company. I have been searching for one.

Thanks.

Given the premimums pet insurers charge, I think it might be better to put the money you'd pay for an insurance premium into a savings account and let it accumulate interest. At least that way you won't have paid out your premiums for not. I know that's not helpful once you have a problem and need coverage, but it might be a good preemptive measure.

Sorry to hear your having grief with the insurance company Steve, im afraid if a pet has an on going illness some companies will not continue to pay out unless you took out their critical illness policy
