Travelers Expands Coverage for Healthcare Organizations

May 25, 2011

Travelers has unveiled new property coverages through its IndustryEdge product for healthcare organizations.

New coverages include:

  • Ordinance or Law – Communicable Disease Contamination Coverage –
    This coverage pays the costs incurred to clean up and remove communicable disease contamination from a premise when mandated by an ordinance or law.
  • Condemnation of Medical Property –
    This coverage pays for loss of visibly undamaged medical property that a government regulatory authority has condemned as a direct result of a covered cause of loss.
  • Unintentional Errors or Omissions – Failure to Report Locations –
    This coverage is extended when the insured unintentionally fails to report a location at the inception date of the policy period, or to report a newly acquired location after the automatic coverage period expires.

Available through Travelers’ network of independent insurance agents and brokers, the IndustryEdge product for Healthcare Organizations has an appetite for:

  • Outpatient facilities including medical offices, clinics, laboratories, diagnostic centers and ambulatory surgical centers.
  • Inpatient facilities including hospitals, nursing homes and other elder-care facilities.
