Embrace | Pet Insurance Review

I have had Embrace Pet Insurance for only 4 months and since I had a healthy pet, I was mainly looking for a "health spending account" for my pet to cover vacinnations, spay and hernia surgery, and some preventive pet meds. So far I have been pleased and the reimbursements have been paid within 15 days. It is nice to know that you have the money for these preventive measures so that you pet stays healthy. The only negative is that the company wanted all of my pets records from the time I had bought her at 3 months and since she had not been sick and the breeder had already vacinated her, it was a little confusing but with a few phone calls from my vet, where she had her phyical,her health was verified.

Embrace does do exactly what they say and they have some of the best coverage around. Our 1 year old dog has elbow dysplasia and we have already been reimbursed for 2 sets of x-rays as the problem was being diagnosed. The first set was ordered by our regular vet and the second set by the specialty orthopedic vet and these fell in 2 separate coverage years. Today I dropped our dog off for arthroscopic surgery and possible osteoctomy that was pre-certified by Embrace (which was really fast, only a day or two). Our orthopedic specialist was surprised that they would cover this congenital disorder. The only draw back is that she started developing symptoms in our first coverage year and it took until the second to get a diagnosis because initial symptoms were consistent with a soft tissue injury. That means that this surgery falls under embrace's "continuing care maximum" of $2,500 instead of her over all $10,000 maximum which is a bummer for us because we didn't even have a chance to do much in her 1st year of coverage when the symptoms developed and her maximum would have afforded the 80% coverage. Now if the surgery is on the low end of the estimate, they will end up paying the 80%, but anything about that will be out of pocket. Many states don't have this continuing care max and we're hoping it'll be gone in our state (Alaska) for the next policy as embrace is trying to convert all states over. Once that change is made I would give embrace a 10. Reimbursements are p

This is the right company for customer-oriented pet insurance.

This is my first go round with pet insurance, and I got into it a little late in the game (after my dog was already having some health issues). Embrace was the ONLY pet insurance company I could find that would even consider covering a pre-existing condition if it was considered curable. I find that when I submit claims, they are processed within about 2 weeks, and I find that instead of finding reasons not to cover my claims, they try to find ways to maximize my claims! I'll give a quick, great example: They give a 5% discount on premiums if your pet is microchipped. So, after I got the coverage, I had my dog microchipped. Not only was the claim for the procedure covered under my wellness rewards in the policy, but when I submitted the claim, I was automatically refunded the 5% of my premium for having the dog microchipped! I didn't have to ask for it! The customer service is excellent - they are thorough, quick and kind in their email correspondence, and very responsive and proactive in helping me get the most out of my benefits. I would recommed Embrace to anyone who wants comprehensive health coverage for their pets. I did a LOT of research before I bought, and Embrace seems to be the best out there!

Imbrace Insurance impresses me in two ways, follow-up and reimbursement. Their follow-up to submitted claims is very quick and all claims have been applied to my plan. Imbrace understands they we have options when we are deciding on an Insurance carrier and service is their top priority.Thank you Imbrace.
