Embrace | Pet Insurance Review

I was very pleased with the fact that it took 10 days from the office visit to the time I received a direct deposit for meds. What I am not happy with is the fact of how they treat "pre-conditions" We adopted our stray dog on 11/19/10, no medical history at all for him. Took him to his first vet visit and he had some problems. We purchased the insurance on 12/5/10....obviously couldn't get it BEFORE we adopted him.....See the emails below and my response.... #1. 12/23/10 Regarding your claim - "Recheck Ears" - with Claim Amount $66.00 for dates 12/20/2010 12:00 AM to 12/20/2010 12:00 AM "Hello Sharon, Thank you for faxing in Peanut's claim documentation, which we received today. When I reviewed Peanut's claim, I noticed that the vet visit for this claim occured in the 14 day waiting period for Peanut's coverage. Unfortunately, this means the claim you submitted is not covered by your policy. I am sorry this email does not bring you good news and I am disappointed that we could not provide benefits on this claim. I look forward to providing you and Peanut other benefits and services in the future. If you have any questions regarding your claim please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you for choosing Embrace." 2. 12/23/10 "If I purchased on the 5, starts the 6th with a 14 day waiting period, it's effective the 20th, correct? So how did it occur in the 14 day waiting period?" 3. 12/27/10 "Good morning Sharon, Sonya has passed your email onto me hoping t

Our dog ate a pound of Chocolate covered raisins and spent the weekend in the doggie ER. Our Embrace policy covered a significant portion of the bill and the service was excellent!

GOOD REIMBURSEMENT. This current reimbursement was about half of the bill I submitted. My dog had a severe sytemic allergic reaction to an insect bite. This made me VERY happy and thankful that I carry insurance. GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE. Claims are always followed up with a personal email from Embrace, acknowledging receipt of the claim, giving an estimate on the time for review, and when to expect reimbursement. I like the fact that a real person actually looks at the claim, and then gives me enough information about what to expect from Embrace--so that I'm never left hanging. Also so much appreciated is the genuine expression of concern about how my little fur-buddy is getting along following the medical problem.

I would not even consider not continuing my Embrace plan for my three Rotties. Having had experience in past years with other dogs on the VPI plan, I can say without a doubt that Embrace is the very best. - Honest, quick, compassionate and reliable. I know what I am going to get back, even before I leave the Vet's office and I am able to affordto give my pets the best care because of Embrace. Whoever started this Company had to have been a pet lover! Before I leave the Vet's office, the forms have been faxed to Embrace. The very next day, I receive a confirmation receipt from Embrace with a time frame for reimbursement. Customer service with Embrace is the best and many "Human" companies could learn a lesson in customer care from Embrace. If you're "shopping" for an insurer, stop here. You won't regret being "Embraced".

Just bought their insurance with wellness program. I am happy with the prompt service so far. I have only made wellness claims and checks have arrived promptly as promised.
