What Coverages Does Chiropractor Insurance Provide?

The exact coverages that a chiropractor insurance policy provides can vary, but there are some protections that many policies commonly offer. These include:

Business and Property Coverage, which may cover basic property risks like theft and fire
General Liability Coverage, which may cover basic liability risks like common accidents and defamation claims
Professional Liability Coverage, which may cover claims that a chiropractor's care caused harm or injury

Each of these coverages come with their own terms, conditions, exclusions and limits that should be carefully reviewed. An experienced agent who specializes in this form of commercial insurance can help chiropractors check the coverage details of any policy they’re considering.

Do Chiropractors Who Work as Employees Need Their Own Insurance?

Chiropractors who are traditional employees of a clinic or other practice may have insurance coverage through their employer. Employers frequently offer differing amounts of coverage, though, and a few employers might not provide employees with their own professional liability coverage. For these reasons, chiropractors who work as employees should consider reviewing their employer's protections with a knowledgeable agent and not automatically assume they’re sufficiently covered.

Additionally, any employer-provided coverage that is available might not extend to chiropractors who work as independent contractors or side work that employees do. In these situations, chiropractors probably need their own insurance.

Mike Bancroft is simply an amazing agent. When my business got burglarized, I was so upset and didn't know what to do. I contacted Mike and he was very prompt in calling me back and he put my mind at ease. He made me feel so much better and handled all of the paperwork immediately. His customer service is top notch and I highly recommend him to be your insurance agent!

Our business was with the same trusted agent for over 20 years. Mike Bancroft offered to evaluate our policies and see if he could save us some money on both Workmen's Comp and general liability. He did, and in the process even moved us to better coverage. Mike also offers a superb quality of service. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Mike Bancroft has been great to work with. He has assisted with my Business Auto, Tool Coverage, Homeowners and all other types of insurance needs. I wouldn't be surprised if they change their name to Paige, Campbell & Bancroft soon!

Extremely prompt, personable, and professional service! Despite only needing a workers' comp policy for one employee, Paige & Campbell was very receptive and ensured to shop my policy around to ensure I received a great price that was almost half of what another broker quoted me.

How Much Are Chiropractor Insurance Premiums?

Premiums for chiropractor policies also vary, for there are many factors that insurers take into account when underwriting policies. One item they consider is the size of a practice, with solo practices that see few patients usually paying less than large practices that have lots of chiropractors and patients.

Even with variance in premiums, though, the vast majority of chiropractic policies are affordable considering a clinic’s budget. The cost of insurance almost certainly is less than what an expensive claim could cost if there’s a disaster or major mistake in work.

An independent insurance agent can help chiropractors find out exactly how much the coverages they need would cost. Whereas captive agents typically can promote a single insurer’s policies, independent agents aren’t tied to any one company and can show policy quotes from multiple insurers in the state. This makes it easy to see how much various policies will cost.
