Anyone know of a good company to obtain malpractice insurance? I am attempting to get license in a new state and they require the insurance prior to licensure - hoping to get reimbursed after the fact.
Any advice will be appreciated.

The CNA policy as sold by NSO.

This is something I have never heard, from anyone, before. One might never have their own insurance. If you are working in a hospital, and they are your employer, they will be covering you. You won't have a policy of your own (although agencies will still try to sell you one). I would talk to another person at the BRN office. Or talk to another CRNA in whatever state you are trying to obtain licensure. Or maybe you misunderstood the requirements. Many, dare I say most CRNAs, will not have their own policy when hospital employees.

Are you certain they write for CRNAs?
CNA or NSO will direct you to AANA, and CNA has an affinity program with them to sell malpractice insurance to the members of AANA.
