What Does Insurance for Acupuncturists Cover?
Just as you guide patients toward balance and wellness, acupuncture liability insurance helps keep your business steady when the unexpected strikes. Without it, you could be left paying out of pocket for patient injuries, property damage, stolen equipment, or employee accidents. We can help you choose coverages to protect against some of these common risks:
Damage to a patient’s property
You’re setting up a portable acupuncture table in a patient’s sunlit living room when your elbow bumps a delicate porcelain vase. It shatters on the hardwood floor. The patient is furious and sues you for damages. A general liability policy could help pay for those types of third-party claims.
Injured or sick employees
Back at the clinic, your assistant rushes to sanitize equipment between patients. She slips and injures her wrist. Adding workers’ compensation to your acupuncturist’s insurance coverage can help cover employees’ medical costs, as well as making up for lost wages if they are unable to work.
It’s often legally required and can protect your business from costly claims, as well as take care of your staff if they get sick or injured on the job. Workers’ comp insurance can help cover medical, rehab expenses, lost wages, and funeral and survivor benefits.
Even if you’re a solo acupuncturist, we recommend workers’ comp since many health insurance policies don’t cover work-related injuries.
Mistakes made in the course of work
As a licensed acupuncturist, you’re meticulous with your work. But mistakes can happen. During a treatment, a patient shifts suddenly, causing a needle to puncture into them too deeply. The patient claims it led to lasting pain and decides to sue. A professional liability policy could help you cover the medical bills and even legal costs.
Damaged or stolen equipment
After a long day of house calls, you return to your car to find the window shattered — your portable acupuncture kit and computer are gone. A business property and equipment policy can help pay for repairs or replacement if your tools or equipment are stolen or damaged on the go.
