Coverage Details

Our policy and the limits have been created specifically for Physical Therapists. Call our Licensed Insurance Agents at 1 (800) 990-3127

Professional Liability Insurance: Also known as “malpractice insurance” or “errors and omissions insurance,” this coverage protects physical therapists from claims of professional negligence. It includes situations such as injuries caused during therapeutic exercises, improper technique, or failure to provide adequate care during treatment.

General Liability Insurance: This coverage protects against claims unrelated to your professional services. For instance, if a client trips and falls on your property, it helps shield you from the financial consequences of lawsuits.

Protects you if you’re accused of defamation, such as libel, slander, or false advertising.

Designed to safeguard your personal information, this coverage includes services like credit monitoring, dark web scans, and recovery assistance in the event of identity theft or a data breach.

Who Needs Physical Therapy Insurance?

Every physical therapist should carry professional liability insurance regardless of where or how they practice.

A patient claim can arise in several ways:

  •  You may be named directly in a lawsuit
  •  Blame could be shifted to you, even if you weren’t primarily responsible
  •  You and your employer could both be held liable
  •  Your employer’s insurance may be insufficient or nonexistent

Having your own individual policy with MyPT Insurance ensures you’re protected, no matter how the claim is filed.

Let’s Compare Physical Therapy Liability Insurance Options

Lowest Price Physical Therapy Liability Insurance: When choosing physical therapy insurance, price is often a key factor, but it’s important to look beyond the number. For example, HPSO’s rates vary by state and employment status. CM&F promotes savings of up to 50% compared to competitors, but final costs depend on your practice setting and selected limits. Proliability offers customizable coverage, but premiums can fluctuate depending on whether you choose claims-made or occurrence form. In contrast, MyPT Insurance offers flat-rate coverage with no hidden fees, confusing discount tiers, or membership requirements, making it easier to understand your costs upfront and plan for annual renewals.

*Total cost is calculated based on the basic policy of professional Liability, general liability, personal injury & Advertising Injury, occurrence form, portable coverage, telehealth coverage and identity protection. Occurrence Form Coverage: preferred insurance coverage where a policy covers claims that arise out of damage or injury that took place during the policy period, regardless of when a claim is made.

General Liability Insurance Included

Unlike many top providers, MyPT Insurance includes general liability coverage as a standard part of every policy, at no extra cost. General liability insurance protects you against common business risks like slip-and-fall injuries or accidents that happen in your treatment space, even if they aren’t related to your professional services. While others focus mainly on professional liability, general liability often requires a separate policy or upgrade. MyPT bundles both coverages together, offering more complete protection without added fees.



No Quote Process

Unlike most providers, MyPT Insurance doesn’t require a lengthy quote process. You can view your rate and purchase coverage in minutes. While other providers often ask for detailed personal and professional information just to generate a quote, with pricing that varies based on factors like hours worked, location, or coverage type. MyPT keeps it simple with transparent, flat-rate pricing and instant online enrollment—no waiting, no guesswork, and no hidden fees.

Claims Made vs. Occurrence Form

Rest easy knowing MyPT Insurance provides occurrence form coverage, the gold standard for long-term protection.


Occurrence Policy

An occurrence form policy covers incidents that happen during the policy period, no matter when the claim is filed.

Example: If an injury occurs in July 2024 while the policy is active (Jan–Dec 2024), it’s covered, even if the claim comes in 2026.


Claims-made Policy

A claims-made policy only covers claims filed while the policy is active, no matter when the incident happened.

Example: If a claim is filed in March 2025 but the policy ended in December 2024, it won’t be covered.

Physical Therapist Insurance FAQs

What Is Physical Therapy Insurance?

Professional liability Insurance is designed to protect your assets and cover your expenses in the event of a malpractice situation. My PT Insurance has crafted a policy that is affordable and provides you with the peace of mind you need to further your career. By practicing without individual professional liability insurance, you could be placing your career and future finances at risk.

Do Physical Therapists Need Insurance?

Physical therapists play a hands-on role in maintaining and promoting overall fitness and health. The personal interaction with patients creates a need for physical therapists to have their own independent liability insurance.

Through continued research, My PT Insurance has created an insurance policy specifically for physical therapists to help protect their career and financial stability in the event a claim is filed against you.

You have invested your time and money into training, education to enhance your career. A small investment now can help you in the event the unfortunate happens.

What’s the difference between Occurrence Form & Claims-Made insurance policies?

The key difference is when coverage applies. An Occurrence Form policy covers incidents that happen during the policy period—no matter when the claim is filed, even years later. A Claims-Made policy only covers claims made while the policy is active. Once the policy ends, so does your ability to file a claim, even if the incident happened during your coverage.

Am I covered for services both in my office and at clients’ homes?

Yes. Your MyPT Insurance policy covers you whether you’re providing services at your own location or traveling to a client’s home. As long as you’re following state and local laws, you’re protected in all 50 states.

Can I purchase a policy now and begin coverage later?

Yes! You can buy a policy now and choose a start date within the next three months. For instance, if you purchase on April 1 but want coverage to begin on May 21, simply choose May 21 as your start date during checkout.

How long does physical therapy insurance take to go into effect?

As soon as you purchase physical therapy insurance through our tailored program, your insurance coverage starts.

MyPT Insurance provides the most affordable professional liability coverage in the physical therapy industry.
