Club & Intramural Insurance Program

Exposures for club and intramural programs can be included as a separate class within your basic accident policy, or a separate policy can be written to insure your club and intramural programs.

Catastrophic Accident Insurance for your club & intramurals is also available. Outside of the NJCAA Intercollegiate Sports Catastrophic insurance program, you should also consider providing catastrophic coverage for your club and intramural sports programs. These programs are often overlooked from an insurance standpoint by institutions, but when you consider the programs offered at schools, such as club rugby, lacrosse, soccer or hockey, you have very high-risk exposures on campus that should be addressed.

International Student Health Insurance

International students often carry travel insurance or health coverage from their home country, which does not properly insure the student within the U.S, or more specifically while participating in College athletics. BMI can provide you with a health insurance plan for your international students and/or student-athletes that specifically provides benefits for intercollegiate sports related injuries. This coverage can be procured and paid for by the institution, or individual enrollment and payment can be done by students.

Mandatory Student Accident Insurance

An innovative approach to containing the rising cost of insurance premiums for colleges & universities while providing a tangible benefit to all students is the implementation of a Mandatory Student Accident (MSA) plan.

A MSA plan will provide valuable protection to all students, while also saving the college or university a significant amount of money by greatly reducing the Intercollegiate Sports Accident Insurance (ICS) policy’s paid claims. As we are all aware, nationally there is still an underinsured and uninsured group within the student population. Even students with health insurance are facing an increasing amount of out of pocket responsibility, resulting from higher deductibles, copays and coinsurances. MSA plans provide vital accident coverage for students without health insurance, while filling in the gaps for those with health insurance.

MSA plans benefit all students, not just athletes, while also protecting the school. These plans afford the school peace of mind knowing there is a layer of coverage in place for everyone, and this acts as a first line of defense of claims to the GL policy.

Coverage Extends To:

  • General Campus Accidents, Slips and Falls
  • Club & Intramural Sports
  • Campus Clubs
  • Intercollegiate Sports
  • Co-Ops, Internships & Externships
  • Campus Events & Activities
  • Travel To & From Campus

High-Limit Accidental Death & Dismemberment

Contingency & Event Cancellation

EVEN THE BEST LAID PLANS …

Pulling off a successful event takes a whole lot of time and effort. But just one unanticipated incident can result in devastating financial losses for a promoter or producer. We develop holistic protection plans that address the big picture and often-overlooked nuances of event risk and coverage.

Coverage options include:

  • Event cancellation.  This coverage protects event expenses and revenue against cancellation, postponement, rescheduling or abandonment caused by reasons beyond anyone’s control. Reasons like adverse weather, earthquakes, terrorism, communicable disease or venue unavailability.
  • Non-appearance coverage. We can add this coverage to your event cancellation policy to provide protection for when your athletes or performers miss a scheduled event. Perils such as accidental injury, illness and death are included and can extend to immediate family.
  • Prize indemnity. This insurance covers the costs of monetary awards or prizes for a variety of special events and contests like full-court basketball shots, TV game show contests, corporate or charity-sponsored competitions, and other promotional activities. We also provide surety bonds for games of chance.
  • Contract bonus coverage. If you’re a corporate sponsor, sports team or entertainment organization that added a financial incentive into a professional athlete’s or entertainer’s contract to fulfill a certain goal, you’re taking a risk. We’ll move the risk from you to an insurance carrier.
  • Promotions & awards. Sometimes a promotion works a little too well. We put policies into place that enable a sponsor or organization to fulfill a promotion’s promises without harming their bottom line.
  • Weather/rain insurance. Weather is the biggest unknown when you’re working outside. We’ll determine which elements you’re likely to face and structure a cost-effective insurance policy that recoups losses
