And, we will be there for you to provide periodic updates in the future, so that your coverage keeps pace with your practice and the market.
Coverages We Offer
In our litigious society having Medical Malpractice coverage is crucial for all healthcare professionals. Without coverage, the expenses related to lawsuits, including legal defense, judgments, and settlements arising from mistakes or oversights can quickly become financially detrimental to your reputation and practice.
Hilb works with the leading carriers offering comprehensive coverage at competitive rates. We help protect you through standard medical malpractice insurance, excess and surplus lines, captives, and self-insured models. As we work with highly rated insurance carriers with a reputation for protecting physicians, we provide more than just peace of mind. Our team can provide coverage for any medical specialty in all 50 states.
The Business Owner’s Policy (BOP) combines two critical coverages for a medical practice: Business Property and General Liability. With one convenient policy, you’re protected against fire, theft, lawsuits and more. You can also purchase optional coverages to tailor your policy to the unique needs of your practice today and as it evolves:
- Cyber Liability Insurance
- Workers Compensation
- Loss of Business Income
Commercial Umbrella
As an employer, Workers’ Compensation is not only critical to protect your business from work-related accidents, but in almost all states, it is required by law. We can help you navigate the complexities of each state’s rules and requirements, which can vary significantly.
Our Workers’ Compensation solutions provide the following benefits:
- Medical benefits
- Coverage for lost wages
- Temporary total benefits
- Permanent partial benefits
- Permanent total benefits
- Death benefits to dependents
One of the most important insurance coverages for medical professionals is Cyber Liability insurance. Healthcare practitioners are targeted by cyber criminals more than any other business because of the immense value of patient personal data and information. Medical practices today rely on technology more than ever, and the risks of data breaches, ransomware, and cyber-attacks is increasing.
Hilb Healthcare provides comprehensive insurance coverage specifically designed for healthcare providers, groups, hospitals, long-term care facilities, and more. Highlights of our policies include:
- Limits up to $10,000,000
- Competitive premiums
- Data breach response coverage
- Cyber extortion
- Defense costs
- HIPAA violations and fines
- Billing errors & omissions
Medical practices, like any business, are susceptible to employment related claims resulting from alleged or actual acts of discrimination, harassment, retaliation, and wrongful termination. Hilb Healthcare offers Employment Practices Liability Insurance (EPLI), which is important protection for any size medical practice. If you have employees, you should consider a comprehensive EPLI policy to protect your practice.
Let us design the insurance plan that is right for you. EPLI defends your practice for any claims arising out of employment practices activities relating to:
- Wrongful demotion, discharge, or termination of employment
- Employment-related misrepresentation
- Violation of employment discrimination laws
- Sexual and other harassment
- Wrongful failure to hire
- Negligent evaluation
- Retaliation
- Invasion of privacy
- Employment-related defamation or infliction of emotional distress
