Covered Facilities
(SEC) = The Special Exposure Cohort. This is a defined category of employees established under the EEOICPA DOL White Card program. The SEC is comprised of classes of employees who have at least one of the 22 SEC cancers and have worked for a specific period of time at one of the SEC facilities. Claims compensated under the SEC do not have to go through the dose reconstruction process, as is required for other cancer claims covered by the EEOICPA DOL White Card program.

What clients and family members say
I have been with Trusted Ally for almost six years. I was with another company for about two years. The attention to detail of needs for the individual and staying on top of medical needs simply don’t compare to the other company that I was with. Trusted Ally truly cares about the individual.

Trusted Ally was very supportive during my Dads battle with Cancer. I highly recommend their services as they will truly be an ally for your Family during tough circumstances.

Cannot say enough good things about Trusted Ally and their team of professionals! My father, former Rocky Flats worker has been receiving care from Trusted Ally RN's for approximately the last 6 months in an Assisted Living facility and I can honestly say thru this Pandemic they have been a Godsend and I believe that my father is still alive due to the care. Thank You! Trusted Ally!!

The medical services I've received from Trusted Ally Home Care has been excellent, timely and extremely helpful. My nurse from Trusted Ally is wonderful, attentive and looks out for my best interests. Couldn't ask for a better nurse. Best help ever!

Curtis and Kristal are so amazing. They both really care about helping people apply for their White Card. It is a breath of fresh air how patient they are. The excellent customer service in how they make you feel like family to Trusted Ally. Your health and your well being is their top priority. I highly recommend Trusted Ally.

Trusted Ally Home Care has helped us tremendously to walk through the steps we needed to take. They stood by our side and gave guidance with doctor appointments, processing paperwork, follow-up, etc. They also have GREAT personalities with a very positive helpful staff.
