Berxi Nursing Malpractice Insurance: Key Features

Here are some noteworthy features of our nursing malpractice insurance for RNs & LPNs/LVNs:

  • Occurrence and claims-made policy options
    • Don’t know the difference between the two? No worries! We wrote an article that breaks it all down for you.
  • Legal defense outside the limits of liability
    • This means that money spent on your defense won’t be deducted from your insurance limits — so if you have a $1 million limit, you’ll still have $1 million to pay for any settlements or damages.
  • Consent to settle
    • This means that we won't settle a claim without your consent.
  • $0 deductibles
  • Flexible insurance limits based on your needs
  • Convenient payment plans for select policies
  • Customizable tail coverage options for customers with claims-made policies

How Much Does Nursing Malpractice Insurance Cost?

Do You Provide Coverage for Me While I Go Back to Nursing School?

Yes, we do. There are two ways to do this. If you’d like coverage as an RN and as a student, you can simply purchase an RN policy and we can add a student endorsement to it. But if you prefer coverage only as a student, we also offer a variety of student policies that start at about $14 per year.

Jason was very helpful. He provided information and was very accommodating, even when I changed the type of policy. He was patient and pleasant. Great experience. Thank you.
