As a doctor or physician, your work carries immense responsibility — from diagnosing illnesses to managing staff and maintaining medical equipment. Every day, you face risks such as employee injuries, property damage, and potential malpractice claims that could disrupt your medical practice and financial stability.
Whether you operate a private clinic, group practice, or urgent care center, having the right Doctors & Physicians Insurance in California ensures your business, employees, and reputation remain protected from unexpected events.

General Liability Insurance for Physicians
General Liability Insurance covers third-party claims for bodily injury, property damage, or personal injury that occur during business operations.
Coverage Includes:
Medical and legal costs for accidents in your office
Property damage to patients’ belongings
Legal defense for advertising or personal injury claims
Example: If a patient slips in your waiting room or an incident occurs involving your facility’s equipment, this policy helps cover the resulting expenses.
Workers’ Compensation Insurance for Medical Practices
Employee injuries are one of the most common exposures for medical offices. From needle sticks to repetitive strain injuries, staff face daily occupational hazards.
Workers’ Compensation Insurance helps protect both you and your employees by covering:
Medical treatment and rehabilitation for workplace injuries
Lost wages during recovery
Employer liability protection for related lawsuits
This coverage also ensures your practice remains compliant with California labor laws, protecting your team and your business.
Property & Equipment Insurance for Physicians
Your practice relies on valuable assets — from exam tables and X-ray machines to diagnostic computers and electronic health systems.
Property & Equipment Insurance protects these essentials from:
Fire or smoke damage
Theft, vandalism, or water damage
Natural disasters (as covered by policy)
Combine this with a Business Owner’s Policy (BOP) to bundle property protection with general liability for broader coverage and cost savings.
Business Interruption Insurance for Medical Practices
When a covered event — such as fire, storm, or electrical outage — forces your practice to close temporarily, Business Interruption Insurance helps sustain your operations.
Coverage Includes:
Lost income during closure
Payroll, rent, and utilities
Temporary relocation and rebuilding expenses
This policy ensures your practice stays financially stable while you recover from disruptions.
Professional Liability Insurance
Even the most skilled physicians can face patient complaints or lawsuits. A missed diagnosis, treatment complication, or communication issue could result in costly litigation.
Medical Malpractice Insurance — available as an add-on to your core policy — protects your professional reputation and financial security.
Coverage Includes:
Legal defense and court costs
Settlements and judgments
Licensing board investigation expenses
Add this essential layer of protection to ensure your career remains secure in any situation.
Cyber Liability Insurance (HIPAA-Compliant)
Doctors and medical offices handle large volumes of patient health data daily. A single cyber incident can expose confidential records and violate HIPAA standards.
Cyber Liability Insurance provides:
Coverage for data breaches, hacking, and ransomware recovery
Legal defense for HIPAA violations
Notification and monitoring services for affected patients
Regulatory fine reimbursement
Protect your patients’ trust and maintain compliance with robust digital security coverage.
