Insuring medical equipment and the services it provides.
The medical field is full of evolving technology, but with that evolution in technology comes an evolution in risk. Whether you sell, repair or service medical devices and equipment, don’t leave yourself exposed. The Healthcare and Life Sciences Group at NFP is proud to have experience working with companies of all sizes. With decades of experience, we’ve developed an in-depth understanding of how your business works, your day-to-day functions and your equipment needs. We also offer package credits and provide all lines of insurance starting at low minimum premiums.
Well-Rounded Liability Coverage
Our core coverage is comprehensive general liability coverage for claims of bodily or property damage against you, whether those claims result from your operations, from service on a piece of equipment or from your product any other time. One vital aspect of our coverage is that it uses and occurrence form, not a claims made form. This means that there is no time limit to file claims, and any incident that occurs during the policy period is eligible, no matter when it is claimed. This simplifies claims management, and prevents hidden costs. We also do not have a deductible on our policies: they aren’t necessary to keep costs down, and can be a hefty cost for the insured to bear.
Beyond foundational general liability coverage, we offer coverage enhancements to support the specialized needs of many businesses:
- Aggregate limit $3 million on all policies
- Non-owned auto, if required, may be included within the minimum premium
- Defense cost paid unlimited for covered claim
- Maximum charge for all specifically endorsed additional insureds and waivers
- Automatic additional insured – managers or lessors of premises
- Each location and each project – equal to general aggregate
- Waiver of subrogation
- HIPAA legal coverage
- Limited product withdrawal expense
- Property damage to borrowed equipment and customer goods
- No fault medical payments
- Excess (aka umbrella) coverage limits available up to $10 million. Ability to add to general liability and auto liability
