Trupanion is great to cover medical expences but they increase the monthly cost. Gradually they get their money back by discreetly increasing the monthly premium with excuses.I dont like insurance companies that give then take with excuses.

multiple claims denied that are covered. for every time you submit a claim you have to resend medical history for every single vet visit your pet has been to in the past, Why don't they keep that on file? Then they deny it. waiting on over $1000 in reimbursement for covered claims that they are denying.

Unfortunately, I find myself following in the same footsteps of many one-star reviews. Initially, I told everyone, who would listen, how happy I was with my Embrace Pet Insurance Policy. My policy started off at $47 per month and grew rapidly from there. By year seven, my policy with the same coverage, was $225 per month. By year eight, my monthly premium increased to $425 per month, that’s a 900% increase over the starting cost. Similarly, I was told it was because of my dog’s Breed and age. However, a quick price check with Embrace’s cost on-line tool, using the exact same parameters, zip code, age, breed and exact coverage (limits and deductibles) showed a $200 per month discrepancy. So clearly, I wasn’t being charged the going rate for my dog’s breed. Embrace customer service offered me one of their step-down “accident only” policies, which I accepted. My dog had a fall while swimming; afterwards, he was experiencing limping in both front shoulders. I submitted all three of my dogs visits, from a major Veterinary Hospital in Boston, to Embrace under the “accident only policy”. The Embrace adjuster denied all three claims, she concluded his fall and shoulder pain was caused by an illness. I appealed all three claims and included a personalized note from the Senior Surgeon, who treated my dog. The surgeon concurred with his Hospital’s Ultra-Sound Department, that my dog’s pain and limping were the result of an injury to the soft tissue of his shoulders. My dog’s treatment plan was based on a soft tissue injury. The Embrace adjuster denied all three appeals and she concluded that my dog’s osteoporosis arthritis, from his rear left leg (which formed after a ACL surgery) had spread to his shoulders and caused both shoulders to limp. The Embrace adjuster overrode a Senior Boston Orthopedic Surgeon and the Imaging department of a World-Class Boston Hospital. I promptly canceled my policy, as I knew that my disappointment with Embrace would only grow from here. I promised myself that I would circle back with everyone from my colleagues at Pfizer to my social media presence, to share my disappointment with Embrace Pet Insurance.

For starters, I've been with PB now for over 3 years, this is a systemic problem! I recently submitted a claim for my dogs ongoing internal inflammation treatment. While Pets Best's policy coverage is straightforward and the premiums are reasonable, the claim processing time is a major problem. It takes an average of 2-3 weeks (or up to 2 months in some cases) for reimbursement, even when all documentation clearly outlines that the claims stem from one condition. My friends with other providers like Healthy Paws get paid out in as little as 24=48 hours after approval, or Lemonade in 24-48 hours—that's the kind of efficiency Pets Best needs to adopt to stay competitive. Overall, 2 stars; great potential, but the slow turnaround is unacceptable for pet parents dealing with urgent health issues

Embrace is a scam - they keep your "wellness" contributions if you dont' use it within the fiscal year. The wellness savings is marketing as a savings plan for your pet, but they don't give customers any warning about using the funds timely. They claimed they give customers verbal notice only of it. They not have over $200 of my money that is just for their own pockets. Cancelled my insurance with them

Brought my puppy in for a little temporary leg soreness making her limp. I knew it was going to cost $100+ but the one thing I could rely on was a sick visit being covered. Long story short, they declined to cover and said their 6 month orthopedic issues clause prohibits those kind of claims in the first 6 months. I knew of this clause and would have waited another month if I remotely thought they would actually stick me with this clause. Well they did. No diagnosis of anything orthopedic but I got a $160 bottle of anti inflammatories for her in the end. Between my vet and these guys, I am better off hoping whatever ails our pets just goes away. What a racket. Response: i have a puppy who was covered for five months already. No one knows about small print exclusions, you don’t advertise those. No fraud and again, I would have waited a few weeks. The law is the law and I live in a crap state. I get that. I am afraid to go to the vet now so pets will suffer unless it’s really urgent. You went from asking for notes saying she wasn’t having orthopedic issues to making me prove she doesn’t have dysplasia. I think adjusters can see based on pet age and that timeline there is no fraud here. Empower your adjusters to make decisions. We are paying for this.

They nickel and dime every single claim that is sent in. They do not reimburse 90% of the bill. They decide how much is allowable for your area then they give you that amount back. So don't expect to get back the 90% they say you get back. They will raise your premium every other year but when it comes down to paying out you need to jump through hoops. I used to recommend this company but not anymore.

This is a scam. Don’t buy into their bs.

I was surprised at the service I received. I have been with Nationwide for a long time with all my other pets and have never had any issues with the customer service. I spoke to Hassan and he was very short with his answers and seemed annoyed with my questions and kept on yawning like I was boring him. This was the first time I experienced anything like this from a Nationwide representative. If I were a new customer I don’t think I would have agreed to getting a policy for my pet. He was also very pushy. It was a unpleasant experience.

I was disappointed to learn that there was a $300 deductible that isn't met right away. I thought that the total invoice would meet deductible but found out only partial dollars of invoice are used , So one would have to see vet multiple times before meeting deductible. That wasn't clearly elaborated to me. Also, they take their time reimbursing
