Girl Scout Insurance

Activity Accident Insurance

Girl Scouts provides Activity Accident Insurance underwritten by Mutual of Omaha to support Girl Scouts participating in Girl Scout approved and supervised activities and events.

Activity Accident insurance is automatic upon membership registration and applies to all adult and youth members who may become injured during a Girl Scout approved and supervised activity.

This coverage works like supplemental medical/health coverage and is intended to help with out-of-pocket medical expenses that may not be covered by personal insurance.

Activity Accident insurance extends to non-members who are invited to participate in a Girl Scout approved and supervised activity, whether an adult volunteer for the day, or a friend of a Girl Scout who is participating.

Activity Accident coverage applies to day events, overnight trips (including camp), and international travel. A summary of these coverage types for each category can be found here.

How to File a Claim toggle arrow

If an injury occurs during a troop or service unit trip or activity, the volunteer should complete the Leader Statement portion (lower half) of Girl Scouts of the USA Insurance Claim Form and give the entire form to the Girl Scout parent.

Treatment must occur within 30 days of the accident date. The parent completes the Claimant Information portion (top half) of the Girl Scouts of the USA Insurance Claim Form, attaches copies of the attending physicians treatment form, and submits the entire form to the Girl Scouts of Greater Iowa, Attention: Finance Department, to complete the Council Use section. Once a claim has been validated it will be forwarded to Mutual of Omaha for processing. Claims will not be processed without council validation.

Completed claim form MUST be submitted to the council office as soon as possible or within 30 days. Claims submitted after 30 days may not be eligible for processing. Additional bills received after the initial treatment should be forwarded to your nearest leadership center as soon as possible. If you have any questions, please contact us at info@gsiowa.org, or (800) 342-8389.
