Reach Out to Your Insurance Carrier
A strong partnership with your insurance carrier is key. Make sure you understand the details of your insurance coverage related to community health and business interruption, including when and how your policies apply. Consult with your insurance agent to ensure the risk management plans and insurance you have developed to respond to communicable diseases and other health challenges are sufficient to address any potential impact on camp should a health threat arise. Discuss business interruption and extra expense coverages (including communicable disease and associated impacts) and specialized forms of travel insurance that might cover camp tuition refunds in certain circumstances.
