Behavioral Coverage Included at No Extra Cost—Unlike MetLife
Embrace includes behavioral coverage in our standard policy — at no additional cost — covering issues like anxiety, aggression, and compulsive behaviors. MetLife does not include this coverage in their basic plan.
Embrace offers an unlimited annual reimbursement option, ensuring your pet gets the care they need without caps. MetLife maxes out at $10,000 annually, which may fall short for pets with chronic or severe conditions.
Embrace provides deductibles from $100 to up to $1,000, offering flexibility to match your budget and coverage needs. MetLife’s deductibles can climb as high as $2,500, potentially leaving you with more out-of-pocket costs before coverage kicks in.
Embrace offers coverage for your pet when you travel, even internationally, for up to 6 consecutive months MetLife, by contrast, restricts coverage outside the U.S.
Both Embrace and MetLife offer pet health coverage — but Embrace goes further, with greater flexibility, exclusive member discounts, and benefits designed to give pet parents a more personalized, stress-free experience.
