If you have a pet, buy health insurance
I have small dog and I bought the insurance as a safety measure. I have used it and think it is great. It certainly helps with Vet bills. My dog doesn't have any major medical problems but having reimbursement for heartworm and flea medication is great. I would recommend pet insurance for everyone who has a pet.

Tests fully paid for
This claim was for tests after mu baby got sick and was in the ER for a few days. The tests cost over $1000 and I had my check within a week. These guys are great. They email you the progress and thank you for taking good care of my dog.

The Appeal Process works!!
My Great Dane puppy was seen by the vet for a swollen ankle and an ear infection was a secondary diagnosis. On the claim form, the vet's office wrote ear infection/infection/injury, which was denied intially by Embrace due to my puppy's pre-existing ear infections. This bill was over $1000 for x-rays, labs, and medications. I submitted an appeal via email and had a letter sent by my vet's office explaining my puppy's condition and with in 2 weeks Embrace agreed to pay a portion of the bill ($150) but this was after my $500 deductible. The portion of the bill was for the ankle injury....not the pre-existing ear infections. So my lesson learned is....pay attention to the vet's diagnosis and make sure it is clear what your dog was actually treated for. The claims and appeal process was much easier than I thought it would be.

Life Saver
This company is outstanding. I insure 3 pets--thank goodness. When my cat was 11 months only, his body stopped making red blood cells. He was hospitalized for 3 weeks, had 2 transfusions, bone marrow tests. It was discovered that he has immune-mediated dyserythropoiesis. With his medication, he is back to normal. I don't know what I would have done without Trupanion. They have not only been fair but also extremely kind and helpful throughout this whole ordeal.
