How it Works

  • Coverage is determined using Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA), which is reported by the USGS. Once the PGA is met or exceeded, the limit is available. Insured prepares a proof of loss statement of economic loss, and it’s submitted to the company. Claims processor verfies the loss payment available and payment is made.
