Embrace Gelp!!

Embrace is great. I love that I am a member for 15 or more years. Very good to us. Yesterday though was the first time someone said they were going to send me a spread sheet of my dogs, Lexi, Jake, and Kings charges( how much did we spend on each dog). I told him that we need an idea of the charges to make an informed decision on picking a new policy. I have not received this spread sheet. This is the first time this has happened. I was being encouraged to maintain the 10000 reimbursement when I am trying to decide on the pricing. The amt has gone up and I need to review my option I was hoping for someone to help me with this issue. No help and no spread sheet. I have been a member for a long time. This time it was a little different than what I expected. Thank you Elizabeth Bandomer PS I still want the spread sheet

Speaking with Gary was very pleasant. He answered every question clearly made me comfortable with going ahead with the pet insurance.

Avoid Embrace - Professional Claim Denial Service

Paid premiums religiously. When my cat needed diagnostics, I got a masterclass in insurance bad faith instead of coverage. What happened: - Entire diagnostic workup denied under blanket "pre-existing thyroid" excuse - No breakdown of what was actually denied vs. covered - Unrelated imaging and consultations were lumped into the rejection - Second claim delayed for weeks as "pending medical history" despite records already on file - Forced my vet to re-send identical documentation they already had The punchline: When my vet asked for claim itemization, Embrace went silent. Their "appeals process"? Make the veterinarian write a letter that goes back to the same underwriter who denied it initially. Translation: You're not buying pet insurance. You're funding an elaborate claim denial operation with a fake appeals process designed to exhaust you into giving up. Save your money. This company sells protection, but delivers a professional runaround when you actually need them. UPDATE: 9/8/25 My response to Embrace’s public statement: Embrace says they’re “upfront” about coverage and that pre-existing conditions are “determined directly from the notes provided to us from your veterinarian.” That is not true in my case. My veterinarian emailed Embrace directly and pressed them for itemization of which charges were being denied, the dates of those charges, and the justification for tying them to hyperthyroidism. Embrace ignored her request and issued blanket denials anyway. If Embrace were truly using the vet’s notes as they claim, they would have answered my vet's questions instead of dodging them. This shows Embrace is not being transparent with policyholders or veterinarians, despite what they write in their template replies.

This compant won’t pay claims

This company won’t pay claims. I submitted four claims for one of my dogs. Embrace denied three of them, claiming that they were pre-existing conditions. Review the negative reviews of this company. This is a typical pattern. To add insult to injury the company raised my premiums 38% after the first year of coverage. They wanted $1500 for no coverage. I cancelled and looking for a company that will sell me actual insurance.
