Physical Therapy Frequently Asked Questions
Do physical therapy clinics need both general liability and professional liability-what's the difference for PT?
Yes. GL covers premises/operations; PL covers clinical services. The NH Physical Therapy Governing Board regulates PT under RSA 328-A and rules (Phy). Use both coverages for leases and health system agreements. [RSA 328-A; N.H. Admin. Code Phy]
Typical small-clinic ranges in NH: PL $1M/$3M commonly ~$375-$950 per PT per year; GL/BOP $450-$1,600 per location. Pricing varies with limits, services, and claims history.
How much does PT clinic malpractice insurance cost in New Hampshire (per provider and per clinic)?
Claims-made vs. occurrence for PT malpractice-what's best for a small outpatient clinic and why?
Occurrence is simpler (no tail). Claims-made starts cheaper but requires tail or prior-acts when you move carriers or sell. If you expect changes, budget tail so you're never exposed.
Are dry needling, spinal manipulation, and BFR covered-or excluded-on typical PT policies in New Hampshire?
Dry needling has been addressed by the Board through guidance pointing licensees to FSBPT/APTA resources; competency and training are expected. Underwriters typically accept DN/BFR when within scope and documented. [OPLC NH PT FAQ; RSA 328-A]
Does PT insurance cover telehealth and treating across state lines-what are the pitfalls in New Hampshire?
Telehealth is permitted, but care occurs where the patient is located-hold NH licensure/Compact privilege when treating NH patients. Follow payer documentation rules. [PT Compact Map (NH member); OPLC PT Board]
What policy limits do PT clinics usually carry in New Hampshire-is $1M/$3M enough or should we go higher?
$1M/$3M PL and $1M GL are common minimums. Hospitals/schools sometimes require $2M/$4M PL and Umbrella-check contract language early.
For 1099/PRN/mobile PTs, keep GL/PL and add HNOA if anyone drives. NH worker-status under the Workers' Compensation law affects WC duties-misclassification can trigger penalties. [RSA 281-A:2; NH DOL WC guidance]
What insurance do we need if we use 1099 therapists, PRN, or mobile PT (HNOA, WC, GL/PL)?
PL often includes license-board defense but excludes data/privacy and most billing fines. Add Cyber for ransomware/PHI and consider Regulatory/Billing E&O if you bill plans.
Does PT malpractice include license/board defense, HIPAA breach response, and cyber/ransomware-or do we need a separate cyber policy?
What insurance do I need to start a PT clinic (or add a second location)-BOP, GL/PL, WC, Cyber, EPLI, Umbrella?
Startup/second site checklist: BOP (GL + property + BI), PL for each clinician/entity, WC for W-2 staff, Cyber, EPLI, and possibly an Umbrella.
Tail extends reporting for claims-made; prior-acts preserves your retro date when switching carriers. Report incidents promptly and look for favorable consent-to-settle language.
How do tail coverage, prior-acts, incident reporting, and consent-to-settle work for PT clinics?
Do direct access and scope-of-practice rules in New Hampshire change what insurance I need as a PT clinic?
Direct access with referral triggers: PTs must refer when outside scope/contraindicated and if no documented improvement within **25 days**. Document screening and timely consults. [N.H. Admin. Code Phy 410.02; RSA 328-A:9]
How do landlord, hospital, or referral contracts in New Hampshire change my coverage (e.g., Additional Insured, Primary/Non-Contributory, Waiver of Subrogation)?
Expect Additional Insured, Primary/Non-Contributory, and Waiver of Subrogation requirements from landlords/hospitals; your broker can endorse GL and issue ACORDs.
Do PT clinics in New Hampshire need Sexual Abuse and Molestation (SAM) coverage, and what limits are typical?
Yes-maintain SAM ($100k-$1M typical). Insurers want written chaperone policies and background checks if you see minors.
Are student interns and shadowing PT or PTA students covered under our clinic policy in New Hampshire?
Students and PTAs require supervision per NH definitions; "direct personal supervision" means the PT is physically present and immediately available. [N.H. Admin. Code Phy 302.04; RSA 328-A:2, IV]
HNOA protects the clinic if staff/contractors drive personal cars for work. It does not repair their vehicle-require personal auto with adequate limits and annual proof.
Does Hired and Non-Owned Auto cover therapists driving to home visits and patient transportation in New Hampshire?
If we classify therapists as 1099 in New Hampshire, do we still need Workers Compensation, and what are the penalties if we dont?
If you classify therapists as 1099s, ensure they meet NH's criteria; otherwise you may owe WC and payroll taxes. When in doubt, treat as W-2 for WC. (RSA 281-A:2, VI; NH DOL guidance).
For cash-based PT clinics in New Hampshire, does insurance differ (malpractice, GL, EPLI, cyber) compared to insurance-billing clinics?
Cash-based clinics still need PL/GL/Cyber/EPLI. Even without payer contracts you have the same malpractice/privacy exposures-keep limits similar to insurance-billing peers.
Does our policy cover payer audits, recoupments, and billing or coding errors in New Hampshire, or do we need separate regulatory defense coverage?
Standard PL rarely covers payer audits/recoupments. Add Regulatory/Billing E&O if you bill plans; confirm defense outside limits where possible.
For workshops, classes, or sidelines: extend GL offsite (or buy event GL), secure AI/PNC/Waiver for hosts, and confirm PL applies offsite. Use participant waivers and incident logs.
What insurance do we need to teach PT workshops, community classes, or cover sports event sidelines offsite in New Hampshire?
COIs are usually same-day once requirements are clear-send exact AI/PNC/Waiver wording and any primary endorsements required by the venue.
