    As noted in the above article, I generally recommend it because it is so cheap, but be aware of some significant coverage limitations. People buy it because they think that if the BON investigates them or the hospital is sued, their own insurance will provide them with a lawyer or defense, and that is generally not true. Read the article for details. Apply appropriate filters to risk management advice given by people with no training or experience in the profession.

    Your employer should provide liability insurance for the employees, and it does not hurt to ask for the details.
