Heartbreaking rigidity and poor customer service...

For years, I've been paying nearly $200/month for my older dog. I've never filed a claim once. In July, she suddenly needed serious dental work (a lot to process financially and emotionally). I'm 9 months pregnant, working full-time, and have been juggling a lot. Yesterday, I sat down to formally file the claim. That's when I learned the window closed 2 weeks ago. I had no idea there even was a claim window---apparently this is only after a policy renews. The rep told me my renewal was 6 days after the procedure (seriously, just 6 days!). For that reason, the window kicked in and they won't even consider the claim. Had the emergency happened a week later, there'd be no issues, which is a reality I'm struggling to wrap my head around. I can't begin to describe how disappointed I am with Embrace, or how stupid I feel for giving them so much money over the past few years... The policy doesn't cover preventive care (I have to pay *another* plan for that), only emergencies; so, now that I'm finally facing one, I can't believe Embrace won't consider reviewing it given how close it was to the renewal... This is an unfathomably profitable company. I'm not sure how a business taking in *so much money* from its customers won't even offer an appeals process. There's nothing patient- or client-centered about Embrace. If you're in the unfortunate position of working with them, please do yourself a favor and (1) read through every fine line of your policy, (2) set calendar reminders for policy renewals, and (3) file all claims immediately. Embrace's policies and procedures are designed to make reimbursement as challenging as possible.

Unbelievably Quick No-Hassle Service

I got my dog Healthy Paws Pet insurance since he was a wee pup. Didn’t think I’d be really using it since it doesn’t cover preventive visits and vet fees. But through the years, when my dog has had health problems, Healthy Paws has consistently made things a lot more bearable (financially). It’s very straightforward - as soon as you hit your $250 deductible, all expenses, save for vet fees, get reimbursed at 80%. Just like recently, I uploaded my invoice on site same day we visited vet (no forms to fill out), got email status updates, by evening it’s approved, and next morning it’s already a pending deposit in my bank. Honestly, I’ve hardly had to talk to their CS because it’s so simple, save for first time I used them, where I had to verify what would be covered before I agreed with procedure. So what I compute will be covered is exactly what gets approved. Also, I forgot about filing my claims last year, and they let me file it this year and got reimbursed. And a $250 deductible isnt really a lot because just 1 sick visit could easily be that, if not more. So highly recommend Healthy Paws. Even my husband is so amazed how quickly they process and reimburse.

Get Pet Insurance!

I have enjoyed Nationwide Pet insurance for 6+ years. I had both pets covered. Samson passed away September 2021. I still have coverage on King-Bailey. I love how simple it is to get refunded for prescription. No paperwork involved. I pick up King's meds from Walmart and the claim is automatically processed and the reimbursement is sent to my bank. There is a 24/7 number to call and an emergency hospital to take your pet in case of emergencies. Nationwide covered all of Samson's burial expenses. If you love your pets, get medical insurance for them. Be ready financially for their emergencies. #Loveurpetenoughtocoverthem

Healthy Paws go Above & Beyond!

When researching pet insurance I knew I didn't want it for basic pet responsibility (check ups, flea and tick, vaccinations, etc. etc) In my opinion, those costs should be considered when you are thinking of getting a pet. I wanted insurance for the emergency and unexpected moments. So when my dog was considered critical for a bladder blockage and my vet sent us to the ER immediately, I knew this was going to be expensive. After a successful surgery to remove 50+ bladder stones, with 1 stuck in her urethra, she still would not urinate which had her hospital stay extended a few more days. All I kept saying was thank goodness we have Healthy Paws Insurance. The financial stress that would've been added during this time was eliminated. I love that you pick your own plan; choose your deductible, and your splits...and payment is ALWAYS SUPER QUICK! If this doesn't convince you enough to chose Healthy Paws for your pet insurance, how about them emailing me afterwards to check on Bailey!!! What insurance company does that??? I highly, highly, highly, recommend Healthy Paws Pet Insurance!!

I will never be without PetFirst again!

I'm so glad I purchased insurance when Mandy was a puppy. Unfortunately, at 1 1/2 she developed her first Mast Cell Tumor. Since that time, we've maxed out our $5000- insurance policy every year. It was one of the best decisions I've ever made. Met Life is very easy to work with-filing claims are a piece of cake, and when I've had to connect with them, the staff has been extremely accommodating! It is so well worth the price even if you never need it-it gives great piece of mind! (I've never had to file a claim for my older lab, almost 7 years of age (and hopefully never will). The price is not as expensive as you might think and well worth every penny!

MetLife is a win for me!

I have had the most seamless experience with MetLife, from the original signup day right through claims. The app is easy to navigate, within 48 hours they let you know they are reviewing your claim & within 48 hours a decision is made. Within 2-3 days you have your money. I have had experience with other ins companies that simply took my premiums & never covered anything. I’ve been pleasantly impressed with MetLife’s pet insurance plan.
