Slow claim service

I've submitted several claims (the oldest dating back to late August, more than 5 weeks ago) and have yet to receive resolution on any of them. They did not make good on their promise of a 15-day response and they have not been very communicative. Each time I inquire about the status of the claims I hear that they are very busy, they're sorry, etc. I chose Embrace largely due to the positive reviews I saw on this site. I have yet to see anything to support those reviews.

peace of mind coverage!

Embrace had been such a blessing to our family. We own an english bulldog, should I say more? Our dog was born with a congenital disorder. If we didn't have Embrace we wouldn't of been able to give him a second chance at life. We appreciate the caring staff and there professionalism. We will always use Embrace for all of our future pets. You just never know when you'll need it.

Fast response to claim

Embrace's claim process is easy and fast! I was impressed by the easy of submitting a claim and the amount of communication regarding my claim. Everything I read about Embrace before coming a customer is true!

Covered Elbow Displasha in 15 mo Golden Retriever

It has been an incredible experience to deal with Embrace over the last few months. Our 15 month old Golden Retriever was diagnosed with bilateral elbow displasha that required surgery. Both our vet and orthopedic specialist were doubtful about the condition be covered through insurance as it is commonly viewed as genetic. We got the treatment pre-certified and after paying our $200 deductible and 10% copay Embrace has covered the rest. In our first year with them they have reimbursed us for close to $4000 in vet bills. They have always been professional and friendly on the phone and the email communication is superb (emails to keep us updated on the claims process and emails after approval to confirm that we received our reimbursement). I recommend Embrace to everyone I know and come across with a dog. If only my medical insurance was this easy and straight forward!

Great Customer Service & Care for my dogs!

What a year we have had. First my then 11 month old Lab (Kaiya) required surgery on her leg. Now just 7 months later my 4 year old Lab (Kiara) required shoulder surgery. I submitted my pre-cert claim for Kaiya and received a very fast response approving the surgery. What a huge relief that was. Then as the surgery bill and then subsequent therapy bills started to roll in, I began to worry. I heard so many horror stories of other insurance companies threatening to drop someone for overusing their insurance! But no worries with Embrace - with each claim submitted they approved it and not only did they approve but even inquired on how Kaiya was doing and sending their best wishes! You don't get that often. Happily Kaiya has fully recovered and Thanks to Embrace for making it easy. Then I find out Kiara needs surgery. Again the slight worry that maybe now I would be told I am over-using my policy - but once again Embrace came through with a speedy approval for surgery. While at the vet's I ran into an individual whose dog was having the exact same surgery only his insurance story was not as good as mine. His insurance company wanted to deny payment and he had to go through a long appeal process in which he was still waiting for the final outcome. There is no way I could have afforded to pay for two surgeries within a year. Embrace afforded me the opportunity to seek and receive treatment for my girls. Kiara is well on her way to recovery thanks to Embrace. Their customer service is outstanding, they have a quick response time and always take the time to answer my many questions. Their dedication and true concern for the welfare of my 3 labs is incredible. They truly represent the best of the pet insurance industry and I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for pet insurance. I don't know what I would have done without Embrace!
