Keeping safe in the mountains
with SAFE-R

Rescue operations after accidents or in emergency situations in the mountains result in mountains of costs and problems for all those involved. Until now, people rescued from mountains or ski slopes faced the consequences on their own, because settling the costs usually didn’t go off as smoothly as the rescue operation itself.

In too many cases those rescued were not only left with the memory of a ruined holiday, but also with a mountain of costs brought about by the rescuers' service fees. Often private accident insurance companies and other insurers would cover only part of the costs, if at all. Rescued persons often needed to clear many hurdles before being reimbursed.

Not so with SAFE-R: once they have been rescued after an accident, visitors are no longer presented with the rescuers' invoices – that’s where Alpgarant comes in to cover the costs. And the claims managers of Alpgarant will be available to provide accident victims with information in their native language.

A poll conducted by Fessel GfK Institute showed that 9 out of 10 winter sports aficionados are in favour of introducing SAFE-R.
