Tijuana.- School insurance coverage is still active, despite the fact that the educational cycle remains online, clarified the Secretary of Education of Baja California, María de Jesús Sánchez Ávila.
The state official stressed that this policy only applies in the case of accidents, never in the event of illnesses or other ailments.
He explained that the coverage will only benefit the student, in the fact that the mishap is registered at the home of the infant or his guardian, never in a public space or in any other type of activity.
The head of the Ministry of Education said that during the month of March a series of challenges were presented to the health and integrity of basic education students, due to the economic imbalances of the services that medical care represents for the family, in addition that many do not know where to turn when their daughters or sons suffer a mishap or accident.
In the morning transmission of the State Government, it indicated that from Monday to Friday according to the school calendar and 24 hours a day, the call center is working for any emergency on the phones 800-026-9906 and 800-788- 0280.
He pointed out that the first step is to call the numbers, where they immediately request to carefully follow the instructions, since by going directly to the health clinics, there is a risk that they are not part of the network or that they are not ready to attend them.
He said that it is important to follow these steps, so that the student receives timely attention.
