Home Healthcare Agency Insurance
Insurance for Home Healthcare Agencies
Home healthcare agencies are a vital resource for millions of American families, playing an essential role in the lives of patients with disabilities or chronic illnesses or those on the road to recovery. They also bridge the care gap for seniors who want to age in place.
The ever-increasing demand for services has grown the home healthcare industry into a nearly $300 billion annual business covering more than 600 million patients each year.
From an insurance standpoint, this service industry creates some unique exposure issues primarily because it’s centered on a large, deployed workforce in a high-touch industry. However, despite your agency’s employee-heavy profile, there are ways to mitigate the risks.
Protect Profits with the Right Insurance Coverage
While you’re already aware of the necessity for workers’ compensation insurance, the bigger consideration lies in the potential lawsuit that can come out of a workers’ compensation claim. You must consider labor law or third-party action over coverage for your protection. This liability insurance is used when an injured employee sues a third party for their injury after they have collected workers’ compensation benefits. “Action over” refers to the act of a third party submitting a claim to the employee’s employer because of their contractual relationship.
To make sure you’re covered for such incidents, it’s essential to have your existing policies thoroughly reviewed. Central Insurance Agency is staffed nationwide with industry experts who will conduct an accurate line-by-line assessment of your current policies to identify any hidden risks or opportunities for cost savings, always focusing on protecting your business for growth.
Get It Right – Right from the Beginning
It’s all too easy to misjudge or miscategorize assets and risks on your insurance applications, which can result in unnecessarily expensive policies or, worse, denial of coverage. However, with a careful review, proper documentation, and strategic policy development, Central Insurance Agency can help even hard-to-insure clients find quality coverage.

In addition, members of the CIA team are also available to audit your current policies, identify errors or omissions, help you correctly classify employees, create insurance packages that meet your needs, and advise on ways to incorporate insurance costs into fees.
