How does a prepurchase or insurance examination differ from a routine physical examination?
What will be an ideal response?
Pre-purchase and insurance exams are often more detailed than a routine exam and require a careful recording of every identifying mark, brand or tag, and all scars or blemishes. Many times the person or company requesting the exam will require blood work to be done, looking for unapparent disease or presence of chemical agents. All breeding animals will require a complete fertility exam as well. A horse may have apparently healthy joints radiographed and even nerve blocked to identify hidden infirmities. Great care must be taken to record all findings completely and accurately.
