Why Do Psychologist Need Malpractice Insurance, Errors and Omissions (E&O) or Professional Liability?
In order to protect themselves against claims of misdiagnosis, bad advice, etc, a psychologist must carry malpractice insurance, which is also known as professional liability or errors and omissions as they are all synonymous terms. Malpractice insurance (professional liability or errors and omissions) should not be confused with general liability insurance as general liability policies do not offer psychologists coverage against claims related to the professional services that they provide. Additionally, most states require that licensed psychologists carry malpractice insurance in order to maintain a current and valid license which is needed to legally provide psychology services.
What Other Types Of Insurance Do Psychologists Need?
General Liability Insurance: While general liability insurance policies do not offer coverage for the professional services that psychologist provide, they can provide coverage against claims of accidental bodily injury or property damage such as “slip and fall” claims.
Cyber Liability Insurance: Psychologist that maintain electronic records which contain sensitive patient information, may also be interested in Cyber Liability Insurance aka data breach coverage or privacy liability.
