Ups and Downs. Mostly Ups.
As far as working with insurance companies are, it's pretty good.
There was a little hitch early on with a claim that eventually became a continuing care type event which was a little stressful which our vet had to get proactive in, but after it got settled they've been quite good about accepting the claims for the medicine our girl is on for life.
The thing about insurance is that you're betting against your pets. If you're lucky, you won't need to file a claim. But if there is a problem with your pet, it's a nice safety net to make sure you can continue giving your pets the care they need.

Healthy Paws is outstanding!
We chose Healthy Paws to insure our Australian Labradoodle based on customer ratings and we are so glad we did! The response time and quick claim processing have been outstanding. We've had previous experiences with other pet policies that were disappointing, but Healthy Paws has lived up to its advertising and promise completely. We enthusiastically recommend this company as a partner in pet healthcare!

Awesome
It was awesome that your main concern was for your pet instead of being concerned about how much it was going to cost. The vet handled all the paperwork and submitted the claim and a week later the reimbursement cheque was in the mail.

Just choose Embrace!
This is my second review for them. Yup, I like them that much. I have tried two other Insurances (Sheltercare and Pet's Best), and I switched to Embrace because of the prompt service and the stress-free claim process. I feel like every time I turn in anything related to medical (I don't have wellness coverage), I get a check in the mail two weeks later. No questions asked. That's how it should be! I am grateful that I can take my cat to the vet without worrying about financial consequences.

Very happy with EMBRACE
My Shih-tzu's diagnosis of advanced liver disease--and prognosis of mere months to live--was very upsetting. But, thanks to EMBRACE, and their no-hassle, prompt processing of claims, my family and I didn't hesitate to get our pup the very best specialized care available. Now, taking 6 Rx meds each day, our little guy is defying the odds and dazzling the vet with his improbable comeback. We are managing the disease only because EMBRACE makes that affordable. And, with friendly, compassionate customer service, they make it pleasant, too.

Better than human health insurance
My 2 year old lab had two separate health events this summer. One was gastro related and a month later, what I thought was an obstruction in her throat turned out to be kennel cough caught from her "Cousin" dog Cami. I paid both vet bills and at that time it never occurred to me to file a claim as it did not include any surgery or serious illness, thankfully. I called ASCPA Pet Health and described the symptoms and the treatments and asked it the claims would be covered. The service level I received was a 10 and the representative encouraged me to file a claim for both events. Within a couple of weeks I was reimbursed and then received a follow up call from Douglas to ask how my dog was and to ensure I was satisfied. My takeaway from this was that Blue Cross Blue Shield human health insurance could learn from the ASCPA Pet Health Insurance!
