We are starting to see substantial movement against COVID-19. Government regulations are easing and we continue to see positive steps in our nation towards re-opening. We are turning a corner and will start paving the way to our “new” normal.

We are taking every measure possible to make the best decisions with your safety in mind. The following are part of our protocols:

  • Ensuring that 6’ social distancing plan is strictly enforced
  • Requiring the use of face coverings at our retail locations
  • Limiting the numbers of customers allowed in our retail offices
  • Daily cleaning of workstations and common areas
  • Requiring a daily self-assessment health checks from each of our team member
  • Adding plexiglass dividers for your safety at desks in many stores

As a reminder, we can continue to be able to service you in-person or over the phone.

  • A list of store hours and locations can be found HERE.
  • For payments over the phone, you can call 844-237-4184 or any other phone number you may have for us.

Over the past couple of months, insurance carriers have seen less drivers on the roads and less reported accidents which gives discounts and savings to consumers. As an independent agency, we can shop multiple carrier sites to seek those discounts. Ultimately providing our customers with the best rate and coverage in their insurance. It really is a great time to save money on car insurance. Possibly one of the best times in recent history. Visit your local retail office or call 800-401-6870 to ask our agents how you can save money today.

We are looking forward to a great summer and we’re here for you no matter where the road takes us.

Spring has arrived and Easter is coming, despite any challenges we face together. Potentially they remind us of the importance of hope, and that goodness and life always comes back after the winter. Many of us have spring and Easter traditions that we celebrate. This year we may alter them a bit, but they still will be very special. At the heart of it all is our ability to reflect, to hope, and our desire for friends and family to be healthy and safe throughout this time.

At Baja Insurance, our sincerest wish is that you are healthy and safe. With that in mind, we want to share some new information and tips related to your health. We have news on government health updates and advice and assistance to pass along.

  • First, the health open enrollment period has been extended until June 30, 2020 in several states. As well, anyone who signs up now because of recently lost coverage will not be subject to a penalty. California, Colorado, Connecticut, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nevada, New York, Rhode Island, Vermont and Washington are the states that have made the move to re-open enrollment.
  • Second, we continue to see smart increases in Telemedicine use by our customers and employees. As the CDC indicates, your family’s health and safety starts with you. Avoid putting them at risk by visiting a doctor’s office if you are not sick. You can keep up with your annual check-ups and prescription re-fills without a trip to a doctor’s office by using Telemedicine. We are proud to offer an affordable Telemedicine solution or you can check your health coverage to see if it is included.

If you want more information on Telemedicine or need assistance with your auto insurance, we are here for you. As a business deemed essential by the government, we remain open and available to you either by phone or in person.

Finally, we wanted to share a bit of safe family fun that you can enjoy during your Easter holiday. We are pleased to share these fun online resources for children from our friends at the Disney Institute:

Disney Imagineering in a Box – Imagineering in a Box is a free, online educational curriculum available through Khan Academy.

Draw Mickey Mouse at Home with a Disney Parks Artist – A complete series of how-to tutorials on drawing Mickey Mouse through the years for the budding artist in your life.

We aspire to be the most trusted source for all your insurance needs, so you can have peace of mind. Have a wonderful holiday.

Stay safe and positive!

Our sincerest hope is that this message finds you well. As your auto insurance provider of choice, we want to continue to find ways to help you during these turbulent times.

First, we know that being available to you is valuable. Because we are an essential business as described by the federal government, our offices remain open and available to you either by phone or in person. Your health and well-being continue to be our priority. We have implemented social distancing measures at our offices, and can continue to safely operate them for you.

As your insurance expert, we will also share insurance and related news that may be helpful to you. Over these busy weeks, the government continues to make policy and benefits changes in response to COVID-19. We will work to keep you informed and help you navigate these topics so that you remain covered and aware during these times.

Changes and important insurance information this week:

  • With delivery services important to our communities and increasing, many people have taken new part- or full-time delivery jobs with companies like GrubHub, Door Dash, Amazon, or others. Please note that standard auto insurance policies do not typically cover this activity. You must inform your insurance carrier and make some adjustments to coverage options. If you don’t inform your carrier, you may risk voiding your insurance. Contact your agent today to ensure you stay covered.
  • This year we began offering Income Tax Filing Services in our offices. As important news, the filing deadline for tax returns has been extended back from April 15 to July 15, 2020. The Treasury Department and the Internal Revenue Service are also providing special tax filing and payment relief to individuals in response to COVID-19.

Finally, we wanted to share a bit of family fun. Kids have lots of energy, so a fun or educational activity is often a good choice. We are pleased to share these online resources and fun activities for children from our friends at the Disney Institute.

  • Disney Animals on DisneyNow – An educational and informative look at some of the majestic animals in our care at Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
  • DisneyAnimals.com for anyone who would like to do a deeper dive than just the videos.

We are here to help you through these challenging times. Feel free to call us for any additional questions. Stay safe and positive!
