NOTE: as of 31st December 2017 our previous claims provider will no longer accept Vetsure forms – so please ensure any old claim forms are removed from circulation and replaced with the correct form.
You can find the the correct claim form on vetsure.com OR EVEN BETTER start using E-Claims NOW and you canāt go wrong!
As a side note, have you met your dedicated claims assessor yet? Weāve allocated you a key contact here at Vetsure to make life just that little bit easier! Please get in touch with us if you donāt know who looks after claims for your practice!

As xmas approaches, the season offers a great opportunity to thank your colleagues and team. Yet survey after survey reveal that vets are notoriously bad at doing this. Whether you are a boss or employee in practice, share your thoughts on the best ways to show appreciation and drive motivation. What has worked, what does not?
It was a fab idea!
I love that idea. Do you have a list of the prizes you used as some inspiration?

CLAIMS: To avoid delays over the Christmas period, please can we ask that claim forms be emailed to us (instead of posted) to claims@vetsure.com OR why not start using e-claims TODAY!?

BUYING GROUP NOTICE: We have been advised by Norbrook that they are foreseeing some possible shortages of stock of Loxicom Oral Supension (cat and dog) in the coming few weeks. To avoid any possible short-term problems they are recommending that all Vetsure buying group members (and especially Platinum practices) order 4 weeks worth of stock now.

Another health plan question: do you think that schemes that operate on an annual basis and renew each year are better or worse than those that just keep collecting money on a rolling basis?
Thanks Doug. I can certainly see the advantage in a rolling scheme – you do have to remember to occasionally put your prices up though!
We do a rolling fee and that seems to work well. We felt that if we renewed each year it would be a prompt for cancellations and become another administration overhead.
Thanks @kevindamoryvets-co-uk

Quick health plan related question. Puppy comes in for first vaccination. The owner wants to subscribe to your puppy health plan at Ā£13 per month. Do you: 1) sign them up and allow them to leave after having their 1st vaccine/ wormers etc and having paid nothing OR 2) take a first larger payment in the practice leaving the remaining monthly…[Read more]
Thanks Paul. I can see the logic there but donāt you struggle more to get people signed up at 6 months vs 3 months? Somebody once talked about clients having an Elizabethan collar of receptivity and that collar gets smaller as the puppy/kitten gets older! I always liked that analogy!
We ask them to pay the first month there and then and if they need first and second vacc we charge a one off uplift fee for giving two vaccinations rather than one. We originally had separate plans for puppyās and kittens but it got too confusing to switch them after a year so we simplified them to one plan for all and this uplift fee.
Iāve heard of other practices using similar methodology and like the solution! Thanks Kevin

Cheesy but true, I love that I can email a query over and it is dealt with straight away ( or as soon as the office is open if I have emailed over the weekend) I think e-claims are great and work well for me, and finally everyone I speak to ( and email) is so cheerful- friendly and helpful- just a pleasure to deal with – this certainly makes you…[Read more]
There are so….. many things that I love about Vetsure which for me sets them apart from other buying groups and insurance companies.
As a platinum practice member and as an AR for Vetsure insurance I have found their transparency and lines of communication to be excellent. Their core values, their ideals of collaboration amongst independent…[Read more]

Good afternoon everyone! Is anyone viewing this on the Hub App? Leave your comments on this post!
Great to get the notifications on the app icon. The more Iām using / checking my notifications the easier Iām finding the tool to use. It would be great if the notification disappeared once the relevant message or post was opened, I might be doing it wrong but it doesnāt seem to go until I mark the notification as āread.ā Thanks
I am reading this…loud & clear! Only problem I had was at H.O when it wouldn’t upload my comment.
bad Wifi connection?
Iām getting notifications on the app too and have to mark as read to remove them but loving the app, really easy to use – even for someone like me who hates technology!! 😀😀
We will make you a Hub app pro in no time!
Have you had any problems since? You should only get notifications:
1. each time a brand new post is made,
2. when somebody comments on a conversation you have started or
3. if you have chosen to ‘follow’ a conversation that you are particularly interested in.
Thanks Doug! Screenshot received thank you Keith.
FAB š
