MEDICAL INSURANCE
Personal medical insurance is primary.
When an individual is injured during a church/school event and a claim is filed under the umbrella policies, there is usually a limit of $10,000, unless liability is established. This coverage IS NOT expected to cover all the costs for uninsured individuals, but to help in instances where injury occurs.
Please, take into consideration that most state-specific medical insurance coverage only covers medical costs within the state that the coverage was acquired.
AUTO INSURANCE
Personal auto insurance coverage is always primary.
When events require transportation by parents or other adults driving their personal vehicles, state minimum coverage limits are a requirement.
We strongly RECOMMEND individuals carry a minimum of $100K/$300K liability limits (employee limits $250K/$500K). We cannot mandate that there be no use of personal vehicles or for non-employees to have specific limits, but we encourage them to be well protected.
Absolutely NO 15-passenger vans (wheelbase is greater than 135 inches)! Do not buy, rent, or borrow!
MORE
DO NOT borrow vehicles from individuals not participating in the trip, instead rent vehicles!
If you rent a vehicle for a church/school activity, use the discount codes with rates negotiated by the General Conference.
Volunteers should purchase insurance through the rental company. Some credit cards may have additional coverage. Under the NUC Auto Insurance umbrella policy, employees have rental car insurance coverage.
