Healthcare Professional Liability
Market-Leading Coverage Features
- Additional Limit Option Included in Excess Policy The possibility of unforeseen gaps or catastrophic events is always real. Our Additional Limit Option is automatically included in every HPL excess policy and gives the insured the option to purchase “top off” insurance over their existing tower of insurance during the policy period or during the 12 months after policy expiration (for insureds who renew their policy with IronHealth). Extra protection can mean significant savings.
- Excess Liability Limit Reinstatement Should the insured's excess liability limits from IronHealth become depleted, they will be reinstated at no additional cost, subject to the same attachment point as our original policy. This option is included in all IronHealth HPL excess policies which are the top layer of the insurance program with a minimum attachment point of $25 million.
