Business Insurance Solutions

Healthcare

Healthcare businesses have a set of unique concerns. Whether you are a hospital, nursing home, or even a specialty medical practice, having the right coverages to protect your operations, and by extension, the people you care for is essential.  Healthcare businesses must consider protecting expensive equipment, acts, errors, and omissions of physicians and surgeons, and keeping patient records secure. Understanding these exposures, Hickok & Boardman can design an insurance and risk management program to protect your business’s assets.

Case Study

Challenge

A healthcare provider with multiple locations throughout multiple states was required to purchase a professional liability extended reporting period, also known as Tail Coverage, each time a doctor left the organization. This not only resulted in additional costs but also clerical headaches.

Solution

Understanding the client’s pain point, Hickok & Boardman structured a professional liability policy that provided coverage for formerly employed doctors indefinitely, without the need to purchase individual extended reporting periods.
