I'm filling out a form for the VA, and it asks if I have (I do). Is it bad if I mention it? I read somewhere that people don't mention they have it, but I don't know if they mean in conversation or on applications.

Be careful about leaving out requested data on applications. Omissions can be viewed as falsification and that's grounds for dismissal (with probable loss of any accrued benefits),

Liability? Are they talking malpractice? It's your right to obtain your own malpractice ins.

if you have a question about the application, ask someone in HR for clarification. Do not lie. I don't know why they want to know, but if you WERE sued you would contact your insurance company and it would all come out anyway, so really no secret there.

Be honest.

But also be aware that these positions draw a crowd... so be prepared for the competition.

Make sure the resume is well-prepared, complete and focused.

Good luck!
