Embrace | Pet Insurance Review

I am admittedly one of the “not so easy to please” customers who does not accept status quo. Embrace is so far beyond status quo. The claims process is foolproof, and response time is exceptional. (No, I do not hold a personal stake in this company).

Brought my puppy in for a little temporary leg soreness making her limp. I knew it was going to cost $100+ but the one thing I could rely on was a sick visit being covered. Long story short, they declined to cover and said their 6 month orthopedic issues clause prohibits those kind of claims in the first 6 months. I knew of this clause and would have waited another month if I remotely thought they would actually stick me with this clause. Well they did. No diagnosis of anything orthopedic but I got a $160 bottle of anti inflammatories for her in the end. Between my vet and these guys, I am better off hoping whatever ails our pets just goes away. What a racket. Response: i have a puppy who was covered for five months already. No one knows about small print exclusions, you don’t advertise those. No fraud and again, I would have waited a few weeks. The law is the law and I live in a crap state. I get that. I am afraid to go to the vet now so pets will suffer unless it’s really urgent. You went from asking for notes saying she wasn’t having orthopedic issues to making me prove she doesn’t have dysplasia. I think adjusters can see based on pet age and that timeline there is no fraud here. Empower your adjusters to make decisions. We are paying for this.

I gave 5 stars since the two previous claims that was file "Emergency Services due the the traumatic injuries, the hospital and surgery claims were processed fast than I had expected. The current claim is for services performed to check the surgery that was initially performed and everything went well.

easy to submit claims

Embrace is a scam - they keep your "wellness" contributions if you dont' use it within the fiscal year. The wellness savings is marketing as a savings plan for your pet, but they don't give customers any warning about using the funds timely. They claimed they give customers verbal notice only of it. They not have over $200 of my money that is just for their own pockets. Cancelled my insurance with them
