The AMGA has partnered with Spot to offer members injury insurance specifically designed for mountain guides. For injuries big and small, Spot’s got your back.
If you get hurt, Spot can cover up to $25k of your out-of-pocket medical bills, with $0 deductible. Spot’s policy costs $224.99 for the year with your AMGA membership. You’re covered while you’re hitting the mountain for fun, guiding, or instructing—whether you’re on the clock or not.
If you get hurt, seek treatment with any licensed medical professional convenient to you. Whatever your physician recommends as treatment should be covered, whether that’s diagnostic tests, scans, surgery, specialist visits, prescriptions, procedures, hospital stays, ambulance or air ambulance rides, physical therapy, and more.
Submit your claim through the Spot website. You’ll be assigned a claims advocate who will work with you to determine the best plan for your medical and financial situation.
