Compare USAA’s pet insurance plans with pet insurance plans provided by Spot.

Choosing a pet insurance provider is an in-depth process that can easily become overwhelming without the right resources. You want to make sure your pet insurance coverage options cover what you need them to.
That’s why we provide comparison guides.
Today, we’re looking at pet insurance plans provided by USAA and they weigh up against the plan options that we offer.
Because USAA offerings are limited to certain members, it’s important to keep in mind that any offerings from USAA may not apply if you fall outside those circles. Let’s look closer below so you can figure out some of the differences.

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.
