Detox Treatment Facility Insurance
Malpractice. For medical professionals, the accusation alone is one of your more pressing concerns. That concern is amplified for doctors and staff working at detox and rehab treatment facilities. For patients suffering from alcohol addiction and substance abuse, the accusation is far too easy to make and that accusation alone, with or without merit, can cost thousands of dollars to refute. Detox and rehab treatment center insurance provides you with the resources to defend your reputation.
Medical Malpractice Coverage for Detox Treatment Facilities
As part of a detox facility and rehab center insurance plan, medical malpractice insurance can cover the costs of litigation including:
- lawyer’s fees
- legal defence costs
- out-of-court settlements
- awards for damages
We provide you with the option to have your coverage available on a per occurrence or claims-made basis.
A quick summary of these two modalities:
- Per Occurrence can cover you for events that took place while you were insured even after the policy has ended
- Claims-made coverage is retroactive only to the earliest date continuous coverage was purchased and needs to be renewed or put into runoff claims that become know during to be covered.
Claims-made coverage is generally more cost-effective in the short-term and may require prior acts or tail coverage if you’re taking over another detox facilities or are considering retirement in the near future.
