  1. ACCIDENT INSURANCE (does not cover losses of personal property)

I understand that Second Presbyterian Church provides a $50,000 Accident Medical Coverage, which includes $10,000 Accidental Death. Emergency evacuation expenses are included when necessitated, by circumstances occurring more than 150 miles from home. Repatriation expenses are also provided in the event of death. These coverages are provided for all participants in the short term program and are included in the trip cost. There is a $100 deductible, and an 80/20 coinsurance.

2. MEDICAL INSURANCE
