Often, it does. After a sudden death, crime or sewage backup, homeowners or renters insurance often covers biohazard cleanup minus your deductible.

For common spaces and rental properties, cleanup is typically arranged and paid for by the property owner or manager.
Coverage usually applies to sudden, accidental events. Insurance commonly excludes neglect over time and hoarding. Check with the insurer prior to starting work.
Phone support stays available. You can ask a cleanup specialist what happens next at your property.
Many renters and homeowners policies include biohazard cleanup for sudden events, less the deductible. Insurance does not usually pay for ongoing neglect or hoarding.
Some remain viable for quite a while. The CDC reports that hepatitis B remains viable on surfaces for at least seven days; dried blood should therefore be handled as infectious.
Most cleanup projects are completed on site in one to three days. Severe scenes, decomposition or hoarding cleanouts may require several days to two weeks.
Biohazard cleanup may be done discreetly. Crews use unmarked vehicles, limit noise and protect details from others living nearby or working in the building.
Body removal is performed by the medical examiner or funeral home. Once the body is removed, the family or owner must clean the property; a biohazard cleanup company is the choice for most.
