QBE Business Insurance Pack
Your clients rely on you to deliver quality treatment and advice. And despite your best efforts, there’s always a chance something can go wrong – potentially leaving you or your employees facing a compensation claim or legal action that’s expensive to fight, let alone lose.
QBE’s Business Insurance Pack offers a range of coverage options for healthcare providers such as GPs, physiotherapists, dieticians, podiatrists, speech therapists and more.
What can it cover?
The Business Insurance Pack comes with Business Liability as standard, which provides $5 million, $10 million or $20 million cover against third-party personal injury, property damage and advertising liability claims.
From there you can add:
- Business building and contents
- Portable Items
- Business Interruption
- Theft
- Money
- Glass
Why healthcare providers might need insurance
When you’re looking at insurance, it’s important to consider all the risk possibilities. The top claims QBE receives from healthcare providers are:
- Accidental damage to property such as portable medical equipment, mobile phones, computers, printers and other common clinical equipment
- Property damage due to weather, with high costs that could put any small business at risk.
With this in mind, you may want to consider adding business building and contents cover to your policy, in addition to Business Liability (which covers accidental damage to property of others).
