More value. More peace of mind. 59% of pet parents we surveyed said they switched to Embrace for the coverage and price that worked best for them.
With Embrace, pet parents can choose from a wide range of deductibles—including higher amounts that can lower monthly premiums—making it easier to customize coverage to fit your budget.
At Embrace, exam fee coverage for accidents and illnesses is available as an optional add-on, helping reduce out-of-pocket costs when visiting the vet. ASPCA® Pet Health Insurance plans do not automatically include exam fee coverage, which can lead to higher out-of-pocket expenses.
One key difference between Embrace and ASPCA® Pet Health Insurance is how medical history is handled.
With Embrace, pet parents can request an optional Medical History Review after enrollment. This gives you clarity on how any pre-existing conditions might affect your pet’s coverage, helping you avoid surprises when it’s time to file a claim.
ASPCA does not offer a proactive review. Instead, medical records are typically evaluated only when you submit a claim, which may lead to unexpected outcomes if conditions are deemed pre-existing at that time.
The benefit: Embrace offers more transparency from the start, so you can make informed decisions about your pet’s care and coverage.
Embrace and ASPCA® Pet Health Insurance both offer protection for your pet’s health. With Embrace, you get added flexibility in choosing deductibles and annual coverage limits features that ASPCA doesn’t match in the same way. This gives pet parents more ways to customize coverage to their needs and budget.
