No. Per Federal Regulation 29 CFR 1910.1030 only services that have received specialized training, have been properly equipped to handle bio-hazardous waste, have mechanisms in place to dispose of the recovered waste and deal with any possible exposures may provide these services.
Why not just have my employees clean the scene?
Due to the risks involved with the exposure of such pathogens, most insurance companies recommend cleanup by a trained professional. OSHA's Bloodborne Pathogen Standards; 29 CFR 1910.1030, states that employees must be provided with information and training prior to dealing with blood or other potentially infectious material, including having a signed contract with an approved medical waste disposal company. Only if your business complies with these actions and 29 CFR 1910.1030, can you allow an employee to cleanup a trauma scene.
Who pays for bio-recovery services?
In most cases your homeowners, businesses or auto insurance will pay for these services. Tenants may be responsible, but the responsibility ultimately falls to the property owner. We bill insurance companies directly or we can provide assistance in filing any claims for you. If a victim of a crime has no insurance then Victim Services may be in a position to authorize and help pay for our services. We also offer payment plans. Whenever possible TraumAway LLC will find a solution for you!
Is the use of a biohazard cleanup company mandated by law when the scene is in a private home?
Will my insurance cover the cost for services provided by TraumAway?
In most cases, home, business or auto insurance will cover the cost associated with TraumAway’s services.
