Insurance Examinations

Livestock such as cattle represent significant investments for many farmers and livestock owners. Protecting these assets through proper insurance is crucial to mitigating risks related to illness, injury, or death. Vitality Veterinary Services provides thorough insurance examinations to ensure your animals are in good health and meet the requirements set by insurance providers.

Importance of Insurance Examinations

Insurance companies typically require an examination before approving coverage for livestock. An insurance examination helps verify the health status of the animal and detect any potential health risks that might affect its insurability. These examinations offer peace of mind, knowing that your animals are protected, and they also help prevent any disputes with insurers in case of future claims.

What Does an Insurance Examination Involve?

Our comprehensive examinations at Vitality Veterinary Services are tailored to meet the needs of both the livestock owner and the insurance company. Our veterinarians will thoroughly assess the overall health of each animal, looking for the following:

Body Condition

A visual and hands-on assessment to evaluate weight, muscle mass, and general fitness.

Vital Signs

Including heart rate, respiratory rate, and temperature.

Dental Examination

Checking the teeth for age estimation and signs of wear or dental disease.

Hoof Health

Inspecting hooves for conditions like foot rot, overgrowth, or lameness.

Reproductive Health

For breeding animals, assessing fertility and reproductive soundness.

This information is then documented in a report for the insurance provider. If the animal is deemed healthy, the examination will facilitate a smooth insurance process. Should any concerns arise, early identification allows for timely intervention, protecting both your investment and your herd.
