C-852252 Report post Posted February 6, 2021 Beware of unavailable benefits. The FMCA travel insurance is currently useless because of the pandemic. There is a pandemic exclusion within the policy. When my husband passed away and we were out of state I tried to use this benefit. I was told there are currently no benefits available and about the pandemic exclusion within the policy. The timing of finding this out could not have been more horrific. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rayin Report post Posted February 6, 2021 (edited) Sad, I'm sorry for your loss. Since that exclusion is not anywhere on the FMCAassist webpage, I would call Mr. Bell at FMCA HQ and ask him questions concerning this exclusion and what others are not found on the FMCA website.

C-852252 Report post Posted February 7, 2021 Good idea to call them and ask that question. I just wish I had known about that before I needed it. I did make it home okay though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

C-852252 Report post Posted February 8, 2021 I spoke with Aaron white this morning. The pandemic exclusion is only for pandemic related incidences. So because my husband died from Covid, I was not covered. If the death was from a different reason it would’ve been covered. He said he would be putting something together and members should be notified of this at my request. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
five Report post Posted February 8, 2021 Did he actually die of Covid? There are a great many deaths attributed to Covid that are not Covid, but long standing prior health issues. However, once contracting Covid, the death was put in the Covid pile. As Rush says...."follow the money." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
