When was the last time you actually reviewed your malpractice policy?

Do not assume every service, location, or practice activity is automatically covered.

If your practice has changed, consider whether your carrier needs to know about:
• A new procedure or clinical service
• Telehealth
• A second practice location
• Mobile or concierge services
• A change in specialty or patient population
• Independent or side practice activities

Practice Pearl: Ask your carrier questions before you need the coverage — not after an incident occurs.

Keep documentation of coverage questions and responses with your professional records.

⭐ FRIDAY FIVE: 5 things NPs can review before the end of the year.

1. Check your professional license and national certification expiration dates.
2. Review your CE requirements and make sure your records are organized.
3. Confirm your DEA registration information is current, if applicable.
4. Review malpractice coverage and any changes in your practice activities.
5. Update your CV, professional profile, and credentialing information.

A few minutes of review now can prevent a last-minute scramble later.

What would you add to your year-end professional checklist?

TONIGHT!!! Know Your Coverage: Malpractice Insurance for NPs with Guest Speaker: Gloria Doherty, PhD, MSN, ACNP- BC

Join us for our next Think It Through Thursday for an interactive discussion, Know Your Coverage: Malpractice Insurance for NPs. Professional liability insurance is something every NP needs, but how well do you understand the coverage protecting your license and practice? We’ll break down key questions around occurrence vs. claims-made policies, liability limits, tail coverage, employer-provided versus individual coverage, the New Mexico Patient Compensation Fund and what to consider when practicing in multiple settings. Bring your questions and join us as we take a practical look at what NPs should know about their malpractice coverage, and how to identify potential gaps before they become a problem.
