Coverage Summary
Livestock Mortality Insurance is a form of non-guaranteed renewable term life insurance for valuable animals. The policy covers against loss by death from all natural causes including death from sickness or disease, or accident, fire or lightning, occurring within the term of the policy, anywhere in the United States and Canada. Theft coverage (excluding straying or mysterious disappearance) is included under the basic mortality policy at no additional charge. The Full Mortality policy includes up to $2,500 of emergency colic surgery coverage at no additional charge.
Hartford Full Mortality policies automatically include Renewal Protection for horses under fourteen (14) years of age. Under the Renewal Protection provision, Hartford agrees to renew mortality coverage on any covered animal suffering from a life threatening injury, sickness or disease at the current limit of insurance. They will continue to renew the mortality coverage under this provision until the animal is over 14 years of age or the condition is no longer life threatening.
In the event of a mortality claim, it will be settled on a Stated Amount basis, which means that you will be paid what the horse is insured for at the time of
the accident, illness, injury or disease causing its death. Values insured for more than purchase price will need to be substantiated at the start of the policy.
The Hartford offers brokers and insureds the flexibility to increase a horse's insured
value at any time during the policy period - so the limit of insurance keeps pace
as the value of the animal is enhanced by industry recognition, race performance,
training, etc.
