Healthcare professionals face the unique risk of malpractice claims resulting from treatment, diagnosis, or patient care. We provide specialised medical indemnity and liability packages designed to meet the strict registration requirements of Australian health boards while protecting your practice and patient data.
Professional Indemnity covers you for financial loss or damage resulting from the advice or services you provide (e.g., an accountant giving incorrect tax advice). Public Liability covers you for third-party physical injury or property damage (e.g., a client tripping over a cord in your office). Most professional service businesses require both.
Yes. While top-tier cloud providers have strong security, data breaches often occur through human error, phishing scams, or compromised passwords at the user level. If your clients' sensitive financial, medical, or personal data is exposed, your business is ultimately responsible for the notification costs, legal fees, and potential fines.
For many professions, yes. Accountants, financial advisors, real estate agents, architects, and allied health professionals are typically required by their respective industry associations, governing boards (like AHPRA), or state legislation to hold a minimum level of Professional Indemnity insurance to maintain their licences or registrations.
Not automatically. Independent contractors and locums are usually considered separate business entities and should carry their own Professional Indemnity and Public Liability insurance. If you want them covered under your firm's policy, you must explicitly declare this to your broker so the policy can be adjusted accordingly.
Even if a claim is completely baseless, the legal costs to defend yourself and your business can be crippling. Professional Indemnity insurance not only covers the cost of compensation if you are found liable, but it also covers the significant legal and defence costs required to clear your name.
