Why EMS

Coverage that keeps up with the job.

EMTs and paramedics carry real occupational risk — road time, scene hazards, exposures, and the long-term toll of shift work — yet EMS is one of the most underinsured groups in emergency services. Agency coverage is often small and tied to your job, and volunteer or private-service medics may have none at all.

We help EMS secure portable, individually-owned coverage with simple no-exam options that pays your family unconditionally and stays with you into retirement.

Built for your world

For EMTs, paramedics, AEMTs, flight medics, private-service and volunteer EMS, and the families who count on them.

Questions, answered

EMS — FAQ

Can EMTs and paramedics get affordable life insurance?+

Yes. Many qualify with no medical exam, and the simplified-issue policies we place are priced on age and general health rather than a first-responder surcharge — often more affordable than medics expect.

Is my agency’s coverage enough?+

Usually not. EMS agency and volunteer-squad coverage is often small and ends when you leave. An individually owned policy fills the gap and stays with you.

Does it pay for an off-duty death?+

Yes. An individually owned policy pays your family no matter how, when, or where — unlike line-of-duty benefits that only apply on duty.
