Called Embrace for help understanding…

Called Embrace for help understanding my cat's benefits—two wonderful reps patiently explained everything. Made my decision so much easier. Never had a problem with them. Great company!

Made processing a claim difficult, covered 5% of the bill

I'll give them two stars for having a short waiting period before the policy is considered active, but legally they can't enforce a lengthy waiting period in my state anyway. I submitted a claim for one of my dog's bills that came out to $633. It was a nightmare processing the claim and it took over a month for them to send me a check for $36. The point of pet insurance is to make vet bills more affordable. Instead I'm just making pet insurance payments on top of paying the vet bills. I am canceling my policy and would not recommend Embrace to anyone.

Embrace Pat insurance is very helpful

Embrace Pat insurance is very helpful. Easy, especially with their app to Download claims and they get back to you very quickly with your reimbursement, either by mail or direct deposit. I have had embrace pet insurance since my dog has been a puppy. She is 6 years old now. And it has really helped us to have this for her & ourselves.

PREDATORY PRACTICES: Embrace Ignores Specialist Evidence to Deny $6,638 ClaimDo not trust

They are using circular, junk-science logic to deny a $6,638 diagnostic claim for my cat’s bone-eroding pathology 。They claim a common runny nose from Feb 2025 is the same as 2026 Erosive Rhinitis。Their logic? Since I didn't perform a $6,000 CT scan for a minor sneeze a year ago, they can "assume" any future issue is pre-existing。This is an impossible standard of care.Even when a DACVIM Specialist clarified that the conditions are unrelated and the previous infection was never proven, Embrace refused to overturn the denial 。They are overriding a specialist’s medical diagnosis with their adjusters' speculation. Formal complaint filed with the California Department of Insurance.
