Upper Age Limits for New Enrollments
Before diving into other factors, if you’re a parent of an older pet, your pet may not qualify to enroll in Accident & Illness pet insurance plans provided by USAA. If your pet is 15 years old, or older, you will only have the option to enroll that pet in an Accident-only plan.
At Spot Pet Insurance, we know that older dogs and cats tend to experience more accidents and illnesses. Plans provided by Spot don’t have upper age limits.
Microchip Implantation Coverage
Microchipping technology helps pet parents find and reunite with their pets if their pet becomes lost. Microchip implants are covered by base plans provided by Spot.
With plans provided by USAA, microchip implantation coverage is only included with an added Wellness Rewards plan, that you can add to your base plan for an additional cost.
Spot's Base Plans Cover Exam Fees for Covered Conditions
Spot's base plans offer coverage for exam fees for covered conditions. With a plan from USAA, policyholders would need to pay for an add-on in order to get similar coverage.
Coverage for Rx Food and Supplements Prescribed to Treat Covered Conditions
Base plans provided by Spot include coverage for Rx foods and supplements when prescribed by a licensed vet to treat covered conditions (not for general maintenance or weight management).
For similar coverage with plans provided by USAA, you’ll need to purchase the added Wellness Rewards plan.
Tucker's Road to Recovery
When emotional support dog Tucker experienced a life-threatening injury to his neck, he needed extensive treatment. His pet parent Kim was able to choose the treatment option that would provide Tucker with the best quality of life because of the financial support provided by Tucker's Spot plan.
Cost of Treatment: $4,305
Spot Plan Reimbursed: $3,874.505

Excellent service and an easy claim…
Excellent service and an easy claim process. Clear communication, helpful support, and great peace of mind for Mila’s care. Very satisfied with Spot Pet Insurance.
I am happy for the most part
I am happy for the most part. After my last claim was in the review process only took two days to complete. I did an appeal for Jake's first depomedrol injection, it was given initially for Jake's arthritis, but as an added benefit it helped his dermatitis and hip. The vet had written in the note you received that was only for his dermatitis, the Vet sent a corrected letter stating that the injection was given for his arthritis. This was acouple months ago, I never received the outcome and nothing was added toward Jake's deductible for his first injection. The injections after that were added towards the deductible. I would be very happy to it this could be resolved and the amount added towards Jake's deductible. Thank you

I was so glad to get a very nice person on the phone. She was congenial and put me at ease. I already had one dog with Spot and I added her 2 sisters. She was so helpful and I hope that if I have to contact Spot again, I get her to help me! Sorry, but I don’t have her name. 🥺 But she had an accent that was great!
