The role of overseeing first responders, whether in the air, on the ground, or in between, carries significant responsibilities and liabilities. Standard medical malpractice protections often fall short in covering the diverse risks inherent in this role. Our specialized expertise ensures that you are covered comprehensively.
Our exclusive EMS Medical Directors insurance program, designed by EMS medical directors for EMS medical directors, addresses the intricate risks and exposures unique to the profession. This nationwide coverage program has no population or eligibility limitations, offering custom professional liability solutions that include:
- Medical oversight errors
- Medical fraud
- False arrest
- Libel/slander
- Employment practices
- Sexual misconduct civil suits
- Incidental bodily injury caused by direct patient care
- Automatic coverage for locum tenens
In addition to claims support, our insurance program extends to cover a myriad of exposures specific to EMS Medical Directors. This includes bodily injury resulting from both direct and indirect patient care, administrative duties, and specialized 3rd party Employment Practices Liability Insurance (EPLI). We recognize that EMS Medical Direction involves complex responsibilities ranging from hands-on patient care to administrative and management issues, necessitating tailored coverage.
Unlike traditional Medical Directors, EMS Medical Directors face unique challenges that demand specialized insurance solutions.
