At a glance
- Vet-fee limit
- Agria’s official dog lifetime range publicly shows up to £20,000 towards vet bills every year. The dog product page links four lifetime products: Lifetime Lite £3,000, Lifetime £6,500, Lifetime Plus £12,500 and Lifetime Premium £20,000
- Excess and co-payment
- Excess: Agria uses both a fixed excess and a percentage excess. The fixed excess applies to each separate illness or injury in each period of insurance; if treatment carries into the next policy year, the fixed excess is payable again · Co-payment: Yes. Agria’s co-payment mechanism is the percentage excess, which is applied after the fixed excess and is payable on all relevant claims. Exact percentage depends on the policy schedule
- Waiting periods
- Illnesses are excluded if they first show clinical signs in the first 10 days after policy start. Accident waiting period for the core dog lifetime product was not clearly stated in the official sources reviewed
- Pre-existing conditions
- Agria will insure pets that already have pre-existing conditions, but it does not cover the pre-existing condition itself or related conditions. Behavioural issues before inception are also treated as pre-existing under the dog policy wording reviewed
