Captive Insurance for Healthcare & Dental Practices
Captive insurance can offer several distinct advantages to healthcare and dental practices, which often face unique and specific risks.
Tailored Risk Management
Captive insurance allows these practices to create policies that address their unique exposures, such as:
- Professional liability related to specific procedures.
- Risks associated with advanced technologies used in their practices.
- Potential liabilities related to patient data privacy and cybersecurity.
- Lost revenue from equipment downtime or business interruption, a gap standard policies rarely fill.
Whereas some plans may cover the repair, a captive covers the income lost while a machine is down or a practitioner can't work.
Cost Control
By establishing a captive insurance company, practices can potentially reduce their overall insurance costs. They can avoid the profit margins and overhead expenses charged by traditional insurers. Your captive retains the underwriting profits, which can be reinvested or used to offset future costs.
Coverage for Niche Risks
Many traditional insurance providers may not provide coverage for niche risks. For example, a dermatologist might have risks associated with specialized laser treatment, or other cosmetic procedures, that standard insurance may not cover. Or, many plans cover a machine malfunction, but not lost revenue when the machine is down. A captive insurance company could be set up to cover those specific risks.
