Start with how the business operates
Medical-office insurance should distinguish clinical professional liability from premises, property, employment, cyber, equipment, and business-income exposures. Services, providers, credentials, patient information, and locations should be described accurately.
Industry risks to discuss
- Patient-care allegations and professional liability
- Protected information, ransomware, privacy events, and network interruption
- Employee injury, employment practices, property, equipment, refrigeration, and office closure
Coverage priorities
- Medical professional liability from an appropriate specialist market
- General liability, property, business income, equipment breakdown, and cyber
- Workers' compensation, EPLI, crime, commercial auto, and umbrella where appropriate
Prepare a Complete Industry Submission
- Describe every service, product, location, and source of revenue
- Use current property, payroll, sales, fleet, equipment, and inventory schedules
- Explain losses, material changes, and completed corrective action
- Identify contracts, customers, landlords, lenders, or regulators that influence coverage decisions
