Read the fine print

Read the fine print, and then just understand it's an insurance company with the main goals being (1) collecting your premiums and (2) denying your claims. My dog had a lipoma, but I wanted it tested to make sure it was benign. Because my dog had a lipoma in his past, ALL lipomas and lumps and bumps are considered pre-exisiting conditions, and are not covered. The insurance contract is written in a way to be vague about this, but the staff will go out of their way to explain things in their favor. I am sticking with them for now, despite that they've never paid a claim AND they raised the premium just recently, but only because I have resolved to accept that this policy is nothing more than a catastrophic policy, should my dog break a bone and need surgery, or something like that. For any other purposes, it's useless (and VERY expensive, even with the USAA discount - incidentally, it's disappointing that USAA affiliates with a company like Embrace, as these are definitely shady practices).

Easy to submit a claim

Easy to submit a claim. Although I found it a bit tedious to get signed up and clear all the preexisting issues two years ago, since then it has been very easy and virtually stress-free to file our claims. We mostly have had wellness claims and I'm very happy that our pups are generally healthy.
