Professional liability insurance

Published

Hi,

I am starting my first RN job in January (home health). I was wondering if there is a particular professional that you can recommend.

Thank you.

A number of people have commented here over the years that they have professional as a rider on their homeowner's insurance policy, so, apparently, that is also an option. I have no idea how that would work, though -- I've always been more comfortable dealing with a company that specializes in professional liability insurance for healthcare providers (like NSO or Marsh).

Read the linked article and decide if it is worthwhile buying your own insurance in view of the coverage limitations that the agents who sell it don't mention. I generally recommend the CNA insurance that is sold by NSO and others. I am pretty confident that anyone who states that they have healthcare professional via a rider on their homeowners' policy is incorrect: I have been doing for 33 years and have never seen this.
