Military families

Can someone stationed at Mountain Home Air Force Base bring an injury claim?

Usually, yes, for a crash with a private driver off base. Airmen, their families and civilian workers hurt by a careless driver can generally claim against that driver's insurer like anyone else.

A crash with a government vehicle, or one on the base itself, can follow different rules and much shorter deadlines. Call early so we can tell you which rules apply.

If you are moved to a new base while your claim is open, we can keep working on it with you by phone, video and email.
