That’s why we provide comparison guides.

Review each provider’s plan terms for more details. The descriptions of other providers’ plans were not provided by that company.

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.

Spot makes it very simple to place a claim with lots of options for doing so. I chose to use snail mail and have had no difficulty. Spot lets me know when they receive my claim, when they have processed the claim, and what the payment is. I find Spot a very good pet insurance and will recommend Spot to my friends.
Spot Pet Insurance is helpful!
I called Customer Service several times, and the customer service rep was helpful in figuring out the answer to my question. They covered things that I didn't think would be covered by my policy. It took a little bit of effort for me to submit all the info they required, but once that was done the process moved relatively quickly. Only issue was that the website didn't show updates to what was happening with my claim right away, but I was able to call Customer Service and they verified where we were in the process.
