Members of the largest NGO on this island – the Barbados Association of Retired Persons (BARP) can plan for the remainder of their future, after being dropped by their medical insurance carrier nearly 12 months ago…

In a special partnership with the City Of Bridgetown Credit Union, BARP members can recruit loved ones to build on the membership base to increase budgetary effectiveness to drive down the cost of premium payments – this is known as the Family and Friends plan with costs soon to be finalised.

BARP president Ed Bushell explained how Florida-based insurer Premier Assurance (PA) Group had agreed to provide coverage to BARP members following the decision by their previous agency to drop them last year.

The PA Group caters to people’s insurance needs in 195 countries for over the last 18 years.
