Coverage for allied health professionals
Professional liability (malpractice) and general liability for allied health professionals and practices — generally intended to respond to claims alleging a covered error, omission, or injury in the course of care. Many employers, facilities, and state boards require proof of coverage before you can work.
Professional liability
Also called malpractice or Errors & Omissions (E&O) — generally intended to respond to claims alleging a covered mistake, omission, or negligent act in the professional services you provide.
General liability
Generally intended to address third-party bodily injury and property damage that can happen in a clinic, a client's home, or on the job — separate from professional acts.
Required to work
Employers, staffing agencies, facilities, and many state licensing boards require a certificate of insurance — often naming them as additional insured — before you start.
Who allied healthcare insurance is for
“Allied health” covers the wide range of healthcare workers and support services outside of physicians and registered nurses — the professionals who deliver, assist with, or support patient care. Whether you work independently, through a staffing agency, or run a small practice, professional liability and general liability are generally the foundation a licensed insurance professional will build from.
