Rising veterinary costs can make a trip to the vet a costly one, so insuring
your cat or dog is therefore a sensible move. With pet insurance from the AA, you are also covered for most types of damage
or injury your pet might cause another person.
AA Pet Insurance gives you a choice of 3 levels of pet insurance cover.
Bronze, Silver & Gold.
Many pet insurers limit cover for ongoing conditions for only 12 months. At the AA they
recognise that some illnesses may go on beyond that, maybe even for the rest of the pets life. Their policy will continue
to cover your pet, up to the policy limit, for ongoing claims subject to cover remaining in force and payment of premium.
The AA also offer something different with their pet co-insurance-In return for a discount to your premium you can opt for
Co-Insurance. This means that you simply pay 10% of the total claim in respect of veterinary claims only. This is subject
to a minimum contribution (Please refer to the policy wording). AA Pet insurance also offers you the choice of paying your
per insurance premium monthly or annually.
The cover for vet fees on the AA policy is cover up to £1,000
under Bronze, £3,000 under Silver and £5,000 under Gold. (Cover is provided on a per incident basis). Many insurers
limit payments for ongoing conditions to the first 12 months only. The AA will continue to cover conditions without a time
limit and, up to the policy limit, subject to cover remaining in force.
