Professional Liability Insurance

Professional Liability Insurance

Professional Liability Insurance (also called Errors and Omissions (E&O), Malpractice or Professional Indemnity Insurance) is the protection you need if you provide advice or professional services to clients. This coverage is designed to protect holistic health professionals against liability incurred as a result of client claims of errors or omissions in performing professional services. There are many brokers that provide professional liability insurance plans specifically for holistic health professionals. Listed below are plan examples targeted at holistic health professionals as of October 2017.

Note: Some professional associations have negotiated discounts for their members or have included E&O insurance as a membership benefit. These have been indicated with a (*). You are encouraged to explore your options and consider this protection. ACHS does not guarantee the accuracy of the web content to outside links nor endorse any particular policy type.
