Ambulance Program
We are able to offer extremely competitive programs in most states for non- emergency (no 911) ambulance accounts. Recent successes include workers’ compensation policies (including dividend programs) in Virginia and South Carolina.
Also recently written were liability contracts including Professional and Employment Practices Liability as well as abuse and molestation coverages. Automobile coverages for the ambulance fleet, property, inland marine, and umbrella liability policies are available. One account written in the last 60 days received a $100,000 reduction in premium from the previous year primarily from the automobile line of business.
We pride ourselves on “shopping” the marketplace for the best price and coverage format for each account and are not “married” to any particular program or insurance company. This enables us to acquire the best product and price for each ambulance insured we represent.
