Peace of mind
It's really a great comfort to know that whenever a pet is perceived as having any health related issue that there is no longer a reason to feel stressed about whether or not to take the pet to the vet to get checked out. This is my 2nd year with Embrace and I wish I had known about them many years ago.

Disappointed
Vet recommended 2 procedures,the 3rd one was required (spay)by trupanion for future coverage in case of future tumors,this is my bill:Condition: Extract retained deciduous teeth, OVH, dewclaw surgery removal.
financial Summary:
Total Claim Request $852.92
Eligible Costs$304.55
Deductible Applied-$100.00
Total Claim Paid (90% coverage)$184.09.
It's better than nothing but not as good as they "Advertise". One more refund like this and i'm giving Petplan a call.

So far, so good
Disclaimer: I am a new customer and I am writing this review in response to the first reimbursement from Embrace. I also have nothing to compare Embrace to. So, more will be revealed but so far, so good. Excellent customer service: actual people who are kind, polite, and literate keep me up to date with the progress of the claim.
Now, on the downside, I expected the policy to cover annual checkups. This is something that Embrace should provide: prevention, after all, is in their best interest.
If they covered preventive care (i.e., annual checkups) I would give them a 10.

Great pet insurance
Our 3 year old English Bulldog had a luxating patella in her left rear leg. It took a couple of vet appointments for it to be correctly diagnosed as we first thought it was an ACL injury.
Knowing we had Embrace Pet Insurance was a relief as we had a labrador mix that need to have an ACL surgically repaired about 5 years ago. We didn't have insurance for her and had to absurd the whole cost of the surgery. Not this time!
We were able to schedule Lexie's surgery right away for the day after she was diagnosed. The quicker a luxating patella is corrected the better chance they'll have for a full recovery without ongoing issues.
Lexie is doing great now. She still has a way to go to rehabilitate her knee but she is ahead of schedule. She has about 3 more months of recovery time to call the surgery a complete success. We would not have been able to afford the cost of the surgery without Embrace Pet Insurance.
Lexie's half-sister belongs to my mother-in-law. Knowing that this may have been a genetic issue we talked my mother-in-law into purchasing a new policy for her half-sister as she had let the coverage lapse. Lexie's half sister is now covered by Embrace and passed her orthopedic exam with flying colors.
We are fortunate enough to have thought ahead and purchased our policy after our original AKC plan was set to renew at about 10 times the original cost. The Embrace cost has gone up a little each year but nothing like how our old AKC plan was set to increase.

If you have a pet, you need Embrace!!!
Like most pet owners, my pet's needs are very important to me. She is a member of my family and when I found out my cat Annie had mammary carcinoma,I was devasstated. I had no idea this could even happen to a cat. I immediately thought this meant my time with Annie was cut short, but because I had Embrace Pet Insurance, that wasn't the case. Luckily I had decided to secure pet insurance several years before based on the great advice from my mom, because my policy helped out a great deal with the costs. It made the option of treatment possible. On top of the financial benefit during this situation and the financial advantage after every pet visit, the employees at Embrace truly care. If you respond to a cliam email, an actual person responds! Can you believe that??? I have also gotten the sense that these employees are also pet owners as well, which is comforting when dealing with a difficult situation concerning your pet. I am tahnkful everyday that I got Embrace pet insurance for Annie and continue to be very satisfied with their service. So, if you have a pet, there should be no cinsideration necessary....get pet insurance. It is a no brainer. Annie is now cancer free and has so many more years ahead of her.

BEWARE - Pre-Existing Conditions
Beware. Our dog has food allergies, which I could easily have avoided finding out about OR paying extra money to test. Anything wrong with my dog is now denied because of his "pre-existing" allergy condition. I could have chosen to be like 90% of pet owners and just ignored it, but I want my pup as healthy as possible. Therefore, I spent lots of money to get to the bottom of it and now I am penalized by Trupanion for every claim going forward. I pay over $300 a month on special grain free kibble from New Zealand. I am betting if he has an accident they will say that it because of his food allergies. Bottom line, they are going to try and do everything possible to get out of paying your claim.
