What is Professional Liability Insurance Coverage?

■ Individual Coverage:

Professional liability insurance, sometimes called Errors and Omissions Liability Insurance, protects you and your assets by defending claims, usually in the nature of negligence or malpractice, in situations where someone claims damage or injury as the result of your professional advice or services. The intent behind this coverage is to protect your personal assets from the risks of liabilities imposed by lawsuits and similar claims.

■ Laboratory Coverage:

Professional Liability coverage that will expand coverage for the laboratory and its employees for acts performed within in the scope of their services. The policy is intended to extend to both Professional Liability as well as General Liability because of the potential crossover of lawsuits.

General Liability insurance policies provide coverage to businesses for personal injury, property damage and other claims arising out of the operation of the business, the use of the business’s products, or accidents or events that occur on the business premises.

All other lines of coverage usual to a laboratory will also be available. Carrier selection will be dependent upon the services being provided at the laboratory.

Who Needs Liability Insurance Coverage?

All individuals providing services in a laboratory setting who may be involved in an incident that may give rise to a claim need liability insurance coverage. This coverage will provide you, the individual, with protection regardless of whether the laboratory coverage has been amended to include your services as an Independent Contractor. In many cases, individuals who are working at multiple laboratories are not typically granted coverage under any laboratory’s insurance program(s). If you are offered coverage through the laboratory, additional coverage may be recommended as the limits on the laboratory’s insurance policies may not be sufficient to cover the potential liability exposure.

• Individual Coverage: Any AAB regular director or supervisor member in good standing.
  This includes CRB and NILA directors/supervisors.
