athleteReg, home of BikeReg, RunReg, SkiReg, TriReg, and PledgeReg, is thrilled to announce a new partnership with Spot, the tech startup offering subscription, on-demand injury insurance that protects everyone from athletes and adventurers to families at home. Participants can now add a Spot policy to their event registration on all athleteReg platforms and Spot will cover the actual costs of their medical bills up to $25K, if they’re injured while participating.
The goal of this offering is to make life easier if an athlete gets injured. Spot is there every step of the way, so an athlete can focus on their injury first and get the treatment they need.
“We’re very excited to offer this to our athletes,” said athleteReg CEO Ross Krause. “Many of us, myself included, can point to a time when we wished we had this coverage. That ride, adventure, or race can be a lot of fun, but when there’s an injury, the stress of it lasts well beyond the moment it happens. Our aim is to reduce this stress and provide some peace of mind and security.”
The Spot plan covers the actual costs of out-of-pocket medical bills, whether a participant has health insurance or not. Spot members can get the treatment they need at any licensed physician, hospital, or urgent care clinic. Once customers receive their first bill, they can file a claim through Spot’s website by taking pictures of the bill on their phones, explaining how they were injured and providing a few other details.
“The Spot and athleteReg partnership is a total game-changer and we’re thrilled to be collaborating on this,” said Nabil Rahman, VP of Strategies and Partnerships at Spot. “Together, we’re giving hundreds of thousands of athletes the option to remove the financial burden of an injury and saving them from crippling medical debt.”
