Navigating through grief and loss
Amica and the Empathy App
Amica is proud to partner with Empathy, an app that combines technology and human care to provide support and guidance for grieving families after a loved one's passing. Empathy functions as a support system for loss, and helps those left behind to cope with, deal with and plan for the complexities that follow the death of a loved one.
Why Empathy?
On average, families spend 13 months settling a loved one’s affairs; that can extend to 20 months if the estate undergoes the entire probate process. Amica recognizes that while life insurance plays a vital role in alleviating financial strain, families often require more support to manage their new financial, legal and administrative responsibilities.
At Amica, we believe that our responsibility goes beyond life insurance. We put care for the people who trust us first. Empathy’s mission of providing human-centered care in the face of loss is one we care deeply about.
We offer access to Empathy free of charge to beneficiaries of our life insurance policyholders and all Amica employees.
When care matters most
A loved one’s passing is an emotional time that can be extremely challenging for their family and friends.
While experiencing profound grief and sorrow, there comes an additional burden for the ones left behind – tasks and responsibilities that need to be managed. These include everything from planning a funeral and writing an obituary to settling an estate and dealing with probate. Having to deal with a wide range of practical, legal and logistical matters while experiencing the weight of grief can seem overwhelming to a loved one’s family.
The Empathy app can help the family sort through their burdens, arrangements and emotions.
