Liability Insurance for Surgical Assistants

As a Surgical Assistant, you work hard in your career and the care and treatment of your patients. A disciplinary action or malpractice lawsuit can have unforeseen consequences on both your career and financial future. While you may have professional liability insurance (malpractice insurance) through your employer, there may be limitations and you may not be fully protected. Having your own professional liability (malpractice) insurance, designed to put your interests first, is the best way to incorporate personal risk management. That's where Proliability comes in. We offer coverage that gives you peace of mind to focus on your patients with affordable premiums*.

Coverage Details

The main feature of the policy that covers you up to the limits on your declarations page that you become legally obligated to pay as a result of a professional liability claim arising out of a covered incident. Limits vary by profession up to $1 million per occurrence/$3 million aggregate. When you complete a quote, the available limits based on your profession and state will be provided.

The policy includes legal representation for covered incidents. This means you have an attorney assigned to you to represent your interests – not the interests of others such as your employer. The legal fees and expenses are in addition to your professional liability policy limits, which is a key benefit to you as this means legal fees and expenses do not erode your liability limits.
