FMCA Assist - Don't leave home without it

Flora and I had to cut short our recent trip out west because of unknown health issues like a emergency gall bladder operation with many complications as well as a potentially life threatening diagnosis. Our surgeon provided us with a written letter that explained he did not feel she was up to a 5 or 6 day return trip to Pittsburgh in the RV. We submitted this to Seven Corners and they approved our air flight back home as well as providing a driver to bring the coach and toad back to our home. The driver Mark Page was great and he treated our coach with care and arrived at our home pretty much when we expected. Seven Corners provided the airfare, cost of the driver (we did tip him) as well as fuel and tolls on the way back. If you have not joined FMCA this benefit is reason enough to pull the trigger. Money well spent for peace of mind.

Is this an extra benefit that you elect and pay for or does it come with FMCA membership automatically?

The benefit is included in your membership; voted in at the 2015 Redmond FMCA reunion at a whopping cost of $0.36 a year of your membership fee. A bargain considering the cost of otherwise.

That's cool. No fine print as to get out of a benefit offered when it comes down to using it as with many things like this. Nice to know
Hope the best for you ..

Well worth the cost of membership although we were members even when they didn't offer it. Since the late DW had liver cancer and we never knew when we might need a emergency trip to a hospital we were glad to see it reinstated.
