What events does this policy cover? 

Here are some examples of what you may be covered for. These examples are for illustrative purposes only. Please refer to the Product Disclosure Statement or Policy information for specific details about the coverage of the policy.   

 

Physical Injury 

A patient visits your podiatry clinic for treatment of a foot condition, such as fungal nail infection. After the procedure, they claim that their condition worsened or that they experienced an adverse reaction to a medication you prescribed, seeking to hold you accountable for any resulting pain or complications. 
 

Slips, Trips, and Falls 

A patient or visitor may file a claim if they slip, trip, or fall in your clinic due to wet floors, misplaced equipment or poor lighting, alleging that the premises were not maintained to ensure safety. 

 

Professional Negligence 

Instances where a patient claims that the care provided did not meet expected professional standards, leading to unsatisfactory results, prolonged pain, or complications, such as improperly treated plantar fasciitis. 

 

Error of Judgment 

Situations where a patient feels that your treatment decisions—such as recommending orthotics or a specific procedure—were inappropriate for their condition, resulting in harm, increased discomfort, or additional medical issues.
