Cervidae, poultry, and <br /> ratites are classified as food animals. Please evaluate your classification accordingly. <br /> What are Excess Limits? <br /> For higher limits in addition to the primary limits, select an excess limit plan. You must have Primary Plan 3 to <br /> qualify for excess limits. <br /> What is Veterinary License Defense Coverage? <br /> Legal fees to defend your veterinary license are not covered under the primary limit plan. License defense will <br /> respond when you incur legal costs to defend your veterinary license if a complaint is filed with your state licensing <br /> board. Select from the three limit options available to add this endorsement to your certificate. <br /> Please note: This covers disciplinary issues that arise out of incidents that occur after the date coverage is secured. <br /> If you have had a regulatory action taken against any veterinary license in the past three years, you must wait three <br /> years from the date of the regulatory action to apply for this endorsement. A regulatory action means any formal <br /> warning, restriction, probation, fine, penalty, suspension, or revocation of any veterinary license. A dismissed <br /> complaint is not considered a regulatory action. If you are involved in an ongoing investigation, you are not eligible <br /> for coverage. Please contact us when the outcome has been finalized to determine eligibility. <br /> What is Animal Bailee (Professional Extension) Coverage? <br /> The animal bailee endorsement covers damage to animals in your care or custody resulting from fire, wind, theft, <br /> escape, flood, vandalism, attack from other animals, and other perils not related to treatment. If you hospitalize, <br /> board, or transport animals, you could be held responsible for the injury, loss, or death of the animals. <br /> This coverage is location-specific: a separate endorsement is needed for each practice location. <br /> This coverage is only available to owners. Please make sure your ownership status is correctly noted on <br /> the front side of this form. <br /> Additional Questions?
