The Black Car Fund (“The BCF”) is a not-for-profit organization created by New York State to provide workers' compensation insurance to drivers of NY Black Car Services including Uber, Lyft, and the more traditional Black Car bases in the industry. BCF also provides safety and health programs that benefit these for-hire drivers, including the Drivers Health Benefits Program that features the Accident Disability Insurance Plan, $100K Accidental Death Benefit, Personal Accident Insurance, Critical Illness Insurance, Dental Insurance, Vision Coverage, Telemedicine, discounts on Urgent Care and Prescriptions, and more, at no cost to eligible drivers. All the benefits paid for by BCF are funded entirely by the small surcharge that is paid by passengers on each ride. While we encourage all eligible drivers to participate, participation is entirely voluntary, and you are not required to participate. None of the benefits are intended to provide you with any rights of employment or to otherwise affect your status as an independent contractor with respect to BCF or with the dispatch base you are affiliated with. If you are an employee driver, none of the benefits paid for by BCF are sponsored or endorsed by your employer. None of the benefits are intended to be covered by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) or the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (“PPACA”). The Black Car Fund reserves the right to revise or terminate these benefits in whole or in part at any time, and for any reason.
