Programs
Ambulance Insurance Program
Overview

This program’s target is directed towards for-profit emergency and non-emergency medical ambulance companies* operating Type I, Type II, or Type III, with some flexibility towards Ambulettes or passenger/wheelchair vans used for paratransit if less than 20% of total operations. Our unique product creates a stable, long term market that is sensitive to real variance in risk which enables us to offer competitive pricing. We have the ability to offer a full package in a single product.

*Accounts operating exclusively as non-emergency paratransit/wheelchair vans are not eligible.
