Paratransit Insurance

If you’re an insurance producer looking to write more business and provide paratransit insurance solutions to your clients, then Prime Insurance Company is the partner for you. As a leading excess and surplus lines insurance company, Prime can write paratransit insurance with confidence. 

We can help your clients even if they’ve been canceled or denied insurance in the past or have a claims history. In most states, we can cover paratransit vans and vehicles, paratransit companies, paratransit services, and paratransit drivers. Whether your client started a new business or is a new driver, or has been in the industry for 20+ years, we can write a customized insurance policy to fit their needs. 

Prime has over 40 years of experience, making us one of the best paratransit insurance providers out there. Many paratransit insurance companies are turning away individuals and businesses that are deemed too risky, or, they could be leaving gaps/exclusions in policies that leave the policyholder exposed. Prime takes a more hands-on approach to learn about you, your client, and their needs so we can write a policy that ensures maximum protection.

Why Choose Prime As Your Insurance Partner?

There are many reasons why you should choose Prime as your insurance partner but here are some highlights: 

Partnership Approach

At Prime, we build trusted relationships and want all parties to be involved. We arrange a phone call with every potential insured to provide fast, flexible underwriting for every client. From our underwriters to our legal team, the insured, and the producers — at Prime, everyone is considered a partner and our processes are designed for the mutual benefit of all parties involved.

“A” Rated Carrier With 40+ Years of Experience

The strength and stability of Prime have led us to over 40 years of experience in the insurance industry. Commercial auto and paratransit insurance are our expertise! 

In-House Teams

We have it all – underwriting, legal, risk management, policy services, etc. You will have direct access to our staff and services, ready to assist you! We even have an in-house claims hotline if an incident or claim occurs, available 24/7.

Extraordinary Claims Results

We pride ourselves on our ability to handle claims in-house and effectively. Prime’s team of attorneys and adjusters are here to assist you every step of the way. Unlike most insurance companies, Prime fights frivolous lawsuits. We will be by your side every step of the way!

Paratransit Insurance Providers and Prime Insurance

Looking for the best paratransit insurance provider? Prime Insurance Company should be at the top of your list. Our partnership approach requires that we speak with the producer and the insured so we can better understand everyone’s needs in order to provide the right coverage, the right service, and most importantly, a healthy relationship.

Accidents do happen. “Compared to accidents involving the general population, paratransit van accidents are likely to cause more serious and life-threatening injuries to passengers. This is because, by definition, passengers needing paratransit have some level of disability preventing them from traveling independently. Often, these disabilities prevent passengers from protecting themselves in dangerous situations or even recognizing that they have been hurt, as is the case for those with dementia.” It’d be wise to go with a trusted paratransit insurance provider such as Prime to handle claims promptly and professionally with exceptional results!

A lot of people go with cheaper markets that will cost them and their insured more in the long run! Over the past years, many of the cheaper markets have run into trouble, gone broke, or stopped writing. As a result, Prime is writing more business and we remain committed to doing it right! Insureds need a more efficient paratransit insurance company and a better partner that’s willing to fight frivolous lawsuits practiced by legal professionals nationwide.

In short, Prime won’t compete with your other markets from a premium standpoint, but we will help you write the business you are turning away today. Plus, we’ll be by your side when a claim or lawsuit is filed against you.

What is Paratransit?

In case you’re wondering, “paratransit is public transportation, with a twist. Paratransit services are meant to provide a transportation option for those individuals who are unable to use the fixed-route bus or rail system serving their location, and these services are flexible in their scheduling and routing, allowing them to accommodate the specific needs of their riders.”

No matter what type of paratransit company your client has or what paratransit service they provide, Prime Insurance Company can write customized paratransit insurance for businesses and individuals.
