What insurance should ICG members consider?

Professional Indemnity
(includes Public & Product Liability)
This provides cover in the event a third party alleges that you have been negligent in performing your services or giving advice, and as a result, they have suffered financial loss. Professional Indemnity insurance may cover the cost of legal representation, as well as compensation you’re required to pay as result of the claim.2
Public & products liability
(included in our Professional Indemnity package)
Public & products liability insurance provides cover for liability for third-party personal injury or property damage arising out of your business activities. For example, if a client or visitor was to slip and fall while on your business premises, you would look to this policy to respond to the claim.

While these events may seem rare, if they do occur, the financial impacts can be very significant. Public Liability is therefore a crucial cover to consider for any business which interacts with members of the public, whether that’s at their office, out in public, or at your clients’ homes.

The Product & Public Liability cover included in the Aon Health Combined Professional Indemnity, Public & Products Liability Policy includes $20 million combined Public and Products Liability limit per occurrence and $60 million in the aggregate.2
Business Insurance
Business Insurance is designed to protect your business and its assets (including equipment) against certain unexpected events. For example, it can include cover for damage to business premises and/or equipment caused by fire, storm, theft and other insured events.

A key part of this policy is Business Interruption, which can provide protection for lost revenue in the event your business is unable to operate as usual due to an insured peril.

Business Insurance is made up of a number of cover sections, and you can choose the sections that relate to your business. Cover is also available for damage to money (if you keep cash on premises), portable contents such as mobile phones and laptops, and Public Liability.2
Cyber Insurance
Cyber insurance helps2 protect you against loss from certain cyber related threats, such as unauthorised access to your computer system or network resulting in loss or theft of data.

As a Coach, you may store valuable client data (such as personal details and bank account details). When this type of personal information is kept digitally in your care, custody or control, it is important to consider the risks of data and security breaches. Cyber insurance may be worth considering when protecting your business against these risks.

Cyber insurance has now become one of the essential products a business in the health industry should consider.
