WARREN, New Jersey – September 20, 2022 –Everest Insurance®, the insurance division of Everest Re Group, Ltd. (“Everest”) (NYSE: RE), today announced its expansion into the group personal accident and health insurance market with the launch of a new suite of group personal accident insurance products: K-12 Student Accident, Participant Accident, and Volunteer Accident. Everest’s diversified offerings now include customized protection for schools, youth sports, associations, and volunteer organizations.
“Organizations managing group activities, including sports, volunteering or after-school programs require financial protection and the ability to provide proper care for their members in the event of an accident. Everest’s expanded offerings now provide this cover to schools, youth sports, associations, and volunteer organizations who are in need,” said Ed Ramos, Vice President of Product Development & Management, Everest Accident and Health. “Building on more than 25 years of accident and health experience, Everest’s new suite of specialized group personal accident products brings a robust range of coverages and benefits not consistently available in the marketplace and provides peace of mind so participant groups can focus on their mission of education or giving back to their communities.”
Everest’s expanded accident and health offerings complement its existing broad portfolio of property, casualty, and specialty coverage. Everest’s comprehensive accident insurance protection enables participant groups to meet their duty of care commitment, with a first line of defense against a participant injury lawsuit, and ensures that if an injury occurs, participants have access to quality medical treatment without the associated financial burden often resulting from out-of-pocket medical costs.
