How does FirstVet work?

You get free access to the online veterinarian FirstVet. Lassie Pet Insurance gives you the opportunity to avoid unnecessary veterinary cost

Updated over 2 months ago

By buying insurance with Lassie, you get free access to advice from online vet FirstVet, right on your mobile. Using FirstVet is completely free for you and your insurance price or how much is left of your insurance package for veterinary costs is not affected (SEK 30,000, SEK 60,000 or SEK 150,000).

At Lassie, we think it's a good idea to contact FirstVet first before you go in to the vet. In many cases, they can help prevent the expensive costs of a clinic visit or advise on the best clinics for your particular problem.

FirstVet helps you with veterinary issues right on your mobile. Common questions they help with are:

  • Vomiting and diarrhoea

  • Skin problems and itching

  • Colds (coughs and sniffles)

  • Possible poisoning

  • Accidents and injuries

So, now to how FirstVet works.
