Important Details for Cancelling:

For In-Home systems, accounts will be cancelled when leased equipment is sent back and inspected. Ship your systems to:
- Bay Alarm Medical | 1140 Galaxy Way Suite #150 | Concord, CA 94520

The device must be properly powered down before shipping it back to us. Failing to do so could damage the unit and signal false alarms to your home.

Wearable buttons (wrist, lanyard, auto fall) and Lockboxes only need to be sent back if you are canceling within your 15-day trial period.

Obtain a tracking number with proof of Postmarked Date and Return Shipment. Keep this tracking number until cancellation is finalized.

We will happily refund any service charges that may have occurred during the waiting period of your cancellation process. The refund amount is based on the postmark date of your returned equipment.

A final email confirmation will be sent once the account is fully closed.

Common Questions

Why Do I Have to Call In to Cancel?

This is especially important for many reasons, the main one being – for the safety of your loved one. We want to make sure the cancellation is coming from the user and not a family member who is not authorized to make such a decision. Additionally, we want to make sure there aren’t any issues with the account or with the quality of our services.

Can I Cancel Online?

At this time, online cancellation is only available for death-related reasons. This can be done on our Online Portal or Bay Alarm Medical App (iOS and Android). Documentation of proof may be required.

How Long Does the Cancellation Process Take?
The average cancellation process can take 2-3 weeks. This includes shipment time and processing. If you’re charged during this period, we will automatically issue you a refund when the process is complete.

Are Return Boxes and Shipping Labels Provided?
We do not provide return/cancellation boxes or shipping labels. Customers can use any box that the equipment can safely be packaged and shipped. We recommend getting a tracking # upon sending the device back to us.

Please Review These Scenarios Before Cancelling

If you’re considering cancelling your account due to the following reasons, please read some of the common concerns below:

Living with Family:

Living with family members certainly adds a degree of peace of mind, but it doesn’t mean a medical alert will no longer be needed. We often see families cancel because the user is living with a family member, but they realize that family member is not with them 24/7.

Before canceling, ask yourself:

Will my loved one still be left alone when the family member is working or running errands?
What about if there is a fall in the bathroom in the middle of the night?
Will someone be able to hear if they need help?

If there’s any period of time where your loved one will be alone in the home, it’s highly recommended that a medical alert stay in place.
