Q:Why
not just have employees of my business clean the scene?
A:Due
to the risks involved with the exposure of such pathogens,
most insurance's recommend cleanup by a trained professional.
Q:
Do we have to pay for services up front?
A:
No, if you are a victim of a crime Red Alert will
perform all required services without requiring payment
at the time of service. We will assist you in the
filing of insurance claims, or in obtaining reimbursement
from the crime victims board.
Q:
Will my insurance cover the cost for services provided
by Red Alert?
A:
In most cases, home business or auto insurance will
cover the cost associated with Red Alert's Services.
If a victim has no insurance coverage, the state of
Texas may be able to authorize and pay for Red Alert's
services not exceeding $800.
Q:
Is the use of a professional biohazard cleanup company
mandated by law when the scene is in a private home?
A:
Although not mandatory, it is highly recommended.
Red Alert's services greatly reduce the likelihood
of re-traumatizing the victim or family member with
the task of cleaning the aftermath.
Q:
Can any cleaning service recover blood, body fluids
or pathological waste?
A
:No, only services that have received specialized
training, have been properly equipped to handle biohazard
waste, have mechanisms in place to dispose of the
recovered waste, and deal with any possible exposures
may provide these services.
