Insurance for Home Healthcare Providers
Insurance Protection for California Home Healthcare Providers
As a home healthcare provider, you play an essential role in patient recovery and comfort by delivering medical and personal care directly to their homes. Whether you are an independent caregiver, a nurse, or operate a home healthcare agency, your work involves physical, emotional, and professional challenges — along with significant liability risks.
From patient injuries to property damage, a single incident can lead to financial loss, legal trouble, or damage to your professional reputation. That’s why having comprehensive Home Healthcare Provider Insurance in California is critical to safeguard your business, your staff, and your clients.
Common Risks for Home Healthcare Providers
A patient falls or is injured under your supervision
A caregiver accidentally damages a client’s property
Allegations of negligence or improper medical care
Data breaches involving patient health records
Employee injuries during home visits
Protect your livelihood with a customized insurance plan from Western Insurance Network — California’s trusted healthcare insurance specialists.
General Liability Insurance for Home Healthcare Providers
General Liability Insurance protects you from third-party claims of bodily injury, property damage, or personal injury.
Coverage Includes:
Medical payments and legal defense costs
Property damage caused during home visits
Libel, slander, or advertising injury claims
Example: If a caregiver accidentally damages a client’s home or a patient is injured during assistance, this coverage helps protect your business financially.
Professional Liability Insurance for Home Healthcare Providers
Also known as Medical Malpractice Insurance, this policy covers claims related to negligence, errors, or omissions while delivering medical or personal care.
Coverage Includes:
Attorney and legal defense costs
Settlements and court judgments
Licensing board investigation expenses
Protect your reputation, license, and livelihood from costly claims with Professional Liability coverage from Western Insurance Network.
Workers’ Compensation Insurance for Home Healthcare Agencies
If you employ nurses, aides, or caregivers, California law requires Workers’ Compensation Insurance to protect your staff in case of workplace injuries.
Coverage Includes:
Medical expenses and rehabilitation costs
Lost wage compensation
Legal defense for employer liability
Ensure compliance and protect your team from the risks associated with home visits and patient care.
Property & Equipment Insurance for Home Healthcare Providers
Your equipment — such as medical kits, mobility aids, laptops, and diagnostic devices — is vital to providing high-quality care. Property & Equipment Insurance covers losses caused by:
Fire, smoke, or water damage
Theft or vandalism
Accidental damage during transport
Natural disasters (as covered by policy)
Combine this with a Business Owner’s Policy (BOP) for broader coverage and bundled savings.
Cyber Liability Insurance (HIPAA-Compliant)
As a healthcare professional, you handle sensitive protected health information (PHI) daily. A cyberattack or accidental data breach can result in severe HIPAA penalties.
Cyber Liability Insurance protects against:
Data breaches and ransomware recovery costs
HIPAA violation penalties
Client notification and credit monitoring expenses
Legal and forensic investigation fees
Keep your patient data secure and your practice compliant with California’s strict privacy laws.

Coverage Includes:
Lost revenue during closure
