What does PAMI mean in MANAGEMENT

Passenger Accident Management and Insurance is a comprehensive insurance plan designed to provide financial protection to passengers who are injured, disabled or killed while traveling in aircrafts. PAMI provides coverage for medical expenses caused by an accident, disability, death or dismemberment during the flight. PAMI also offers repatriation of remains in case of death due to the accident and assistance in locating lost luggage.

PAMI covers any domestic or international commercial aircraft which are designated by the relevant regulatory authority. The policy may be extended to include private charters depending on individual requirements.

The amount of coverage provided depends on individual needs and policies; however, most policies offer between $500,000 and $1 million per passenger for Medical Expenses, Bag Loss/Damage and Repatriation of Remains.

All passengers onboard a flight that has purchased a PAMI policy are eligible for coverage in case they suffer an injury, become disabled or die due to an aviation incident.

To make a valid claim under your PAMI policy, you must submit a written notification within 30 days from the date of the incident. You will then need to complete an application form which should include required documentation such as medical reports and hospital bills as applicable. A claims advisor will assess your application and respond with their decisions within 7-10 business days.
