Claims for vet bills and emergency boarding

Claiming is simple:

Step 1: Check your pet insurance policy.
Check your Combined Product Disclosure Statement and Financial Services Guide to see what you're entitled to claim.

Step 2: Share your claim details with us

Download the Pet Insurance Claim Form and have the following information handy:

 

  • your policy number
  • the date and details of the treatment being claimed
  • full veterinary history for your pet (if this is their first injury or illness claim)
  • your veterinarians’ clinical notes for the treatment being claimed
  • your paid invoices
  • Pet Insurance claim form (if submitting by email).

Step 3: Lodge your claim

Phone
Call us on 13 72 02 to lodge your claim over the phone. We’ll provide you with your claim number and advise what documents you may need to send in. This is usually the quickest way to lodge your claim.

Email

Email your completed claim form, pet’s vet history (if it’s your first claim), clinical notes and paid invoices to petclaims@racq.com.au.

We’ll lodge your claim as fast as possible, however in busy periods there can sometimes be a little wait.

 

Please note:

A full treatment history must be provided on your first claim (unless claiming under Tender Loving Care optional benefit). Requests may be made to update your treatment history during a claims process. 

For Tender Loving Care (TLC) or Emergency Boarding claims simply:
