5 Reasons to Consider Spot plans
1. Embrace plans microchip coverage is an extra cost
Microchipping is an important measure that helps pet parents protect their pets from being lost. If your dog or cat gets lost, a microchip gives them the best chance of finding their way back home to you. Microchipping may cost between $30 and $50, and pricing varies by location.
Spot plans include coverage for microchip implantation in all core plans. This extra measure can help provide you with valuable peace of mind, so we’re happy to offer plans with this coverage to pet parents.
To be reimbursed for microchip implantation with an Embrace pet insurance policy, you need to add on their Wellness Rewards, which is an additional cost on top of your base plan premium.
2. Embrace accident & illness plans have an upper age limit for new enrollments
At Spot Pet Insurance, we passionately believe that all pets should have access to exceptional coverage regardless of their old age.
Embrace plans will not enroll new dogs or cats 15 years old or above in accident & illness plans. They can only enroll in an accident-only plan.
Spot plans have no upper age limits for new enrollments. Once your pet is eight weeks old, you’re welcome to enroll in Spot plan. Getting your pet covered sooner will help ensure that you have the support you need early on in their life.
3. Embrace plan coverage for Rx supplements used to treat covered conditions is an additional cost to the base plan.
To be eligible for coverage of Rx supplements for covered conditions with an Embrace policy, you need to purchase their Wellness Rewards.
However, Spot takes a holistic approach to pet care. Spot plans cover Rx supplements that are prescribed to treat covered conditions. Spot Pet Insurance plans to make it simple to get help with providing your pet with the supplements they need to treat covered conditions.
4. Embrace plans’ multi-pet discount maybe 5%, depending on the state.
Why should you pay more for pet health insurance if you have multiple pets? We believe all of your pets should have access to coverage — and that you should be rewarded for your loyalty.
Embrace offers a multi-pet discount, but it may be 5 percent off depending on the state you live in. Spot plans’ multi-pet discount is 10 percent off added policies in all 50 states — customer care that cares.
5. Embrace plans have a six-month waiting period for orthopedic conditions
While Spot plans and Embrace plans share the same 14-day waiting period for illness coverage, Embrace doesn't extend this to orthopedic conditions (which include hip dysplasia, ligament tears, intervertebral disc disease, arthritis, and bone fractures).
To have the six-month waiting period for orthopedic conditions reduced, Embrace policyholders need to have an orthopedic exam performed by their vet. Embrace plans do not cover the check-up exam unless the customer has added Embrace Wellness Rewards to their policy.
With plans provided by Spot, eligible orthopedic conditions are given the same 14-day waiting period.
The Spot treatment
At Spot, we believe in making pet parenting as easy as possible — while providing your pet with what they need to thrive. We help pet parents support their cats and dogs by offering preventive care coverage at an additional cost (for things like wellness exams, spay/neuter, and diagnostic testing).
You can play all day with your pets with less worry. You love your routine with your pets, and Spot supports that routine.
