Must you sacrifice your hard-earned retirement to pay for a loved one’s nursing home care? Take advantage of a solution that can help you hold on to the tens of thousands of dollars such care can cost.
In the event of a total disability of a regular member in good standing, AFSA provides up to $1,500 per month in disability benefits, up to a maximum lifetime benefit of $15,000.
$10,000 of accidental death coverage is provided by AFSA for members regardless of other insurance coverage. In order for benefits to be paid, AFSA membership must be in good standing and the member must have previously filed a signed beneficiary form with AFSA. The death certificate must state accidental death in order to qualify.
AFSA provides up to $25,000 of coverage for defense costs associated with denial of constitutional rights, “failure to educate” and criminal charges arising from school activities, when regular members in good standing are named as parties or defendants, provided that there is complete exoneration of the criminal charges.
