As a physical therapist (PT), you and your staff work hard to help patients recover from injuries. And as much as you try to avoid them, mistakes can happen during your time with a patient. This is where professional liability insurance for physical therapists can help. It can protect you if a patient claims there was an accident or issue with the services provided.
Many states may require businesses to carry physical therapy liability insurance, also known as malpractice insurance.
Even if your state doesn’t require this type of business insurance, it’s still good to have. Without it, you may have to pay out of pocket for liability claims, which can devastate your business.
What Is the Average Cost of Professional Liability Insurance for Physical Therapists?
Physical therapy liability insurance average costs vary between states. That’s because every business is different and has unique needs. If you have a smaller physical therapy business, you may pay between $300 and $1,500 a year for PT insurance coverage. Larger facilities may pay between $800 and $15,000 a year.

The type of business

General liability insurance to help cover claims that your physical therapy business caused bodily injury or property damage to someone else’s belongings. For example, let's say an exercise band snaps while a patient uses it and it hits them in the face, requiring a trip to urgent care. Your general liability insurance coverage can help pay for their medical expenses.
Data breach insurance to help you respond to a breach where PII or health records get stolen or lost. Some insurers also call this coverage cyber liability insurance. This type of insurance can help pay your costs to:Notify affected patients

Who Needs Physical Therapy Liability Insurance?

Physical therapists
Physical therapist assistants (PTAs)
Aides Technicians Interns
Liability insurance for physical therapist assistants helps protect PTAs from patient lawsuits. If they make a mistake and a patient sues your business for it, this coverage can help them. They'll have the same coverage as you and other physical therapists.
Be aware that coverage eligibility may vary between insurers. For example, with The Hartford, licensed physical therapists and other professionals must be employees of your business to get coverage. If a physical therapist works for another type of employer, like a hospital, they may not get professional liability coverage.
