Embrace | Pet Insurance Review

Our Dane, Harley, started gagging and heaving like she needed to vomit but didn't. Not the norm for her. I rubbed her throat, tried to get her to drink some water, maybe she had a piece of kibble stuck. Then I decided to feel her stomach. It was rock hard. I was fairly certain her stomach had twisted and it was some type of gastric torsion - known as bloat - that happened. We rushed her to the nearest emergency vet and let them take care of her. She made it through surgery but they had to remove her spleen b/c of the damage due to lack of blood flow. She had to stay at the Emergency vet for 2 1/2 days and they charge by the hour. The best part of this scary experience is that we didn't have to worry about the huge bill. My husband came home that night concerned about the estimate he was given for the surgery, stay, etc. $3400 - $4500. I told him with confidence we have to meet the deductible we chose then we only pay 10% of the remaining covered charges. This isn't the first time I've had to file claims. The process is quick and easy from start to finish. The vet filled out the form and faxed it for me with the invoice/bill, I got an email the next day, and today I got an email that I'd be reimbursed for $3580 of the $4427 I was billed. I'm extremely pleased. We paid the deductible and 10%. It took 8 business days from the day they received the claim. Thanks again, Embrace.

After MONTHS of jerking us around, our claim for giardia was finally and with finality, denied. This denial is based on a previous vet visit from 7/2013 where diarrhea was noted by the veterinarian. No fecal workup was done, due to the diagnosis NOT being giardia. On 3/3/2014 she was diagnosed with giardia (got by drinking water at a dog park). The total bill for this was over $1000, and was handled expertly by our vet. They have denied our claim, and completely given us the run-around due to the notation by the previous vet back in July. If she had had giardia for 8 months, undiagnosed and untreated, she would be dead. Despite this logic, they still refuse to pay. I would never recommend this company to anyone, and I will never use them again.

I have both the Wellness coverage and accident/illness coverage for my 2 dogs. Luckily, we have not had to use the accident or illness policy. The Wellness policy has been easy to use, and they have handled all of my claims quickly and easily.

Claims are always paid in a timely manner. In addition they send you an email to make sure you had received your reimbursement. Again great service.

Our dog Reno had ACL knee surgery, and Embrace insurance was very helpful and efficient in taking care of the claim.
