Insurance for Medical Services in the Film & TV industry
With an increasing focus on health & safety across most industries, the Film & TV sector is not alone in looking to provide high levels of first aid support and health & safety advice to a variety of clients including production companies, events and studios. The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic has seen a raft of new procedures and roles introduced into the industry, with Covid supervisors and testing regimes playing a huge part in keeping the UK film industry active during the last two years.

What are the key areas of insurance cover for medical service companies?
Together with the usual employers and public liability cover which protects your liability arising from injury to own staff and third parties, medical malpractice insurance is an essential coverage for companies providing medical services. This area of cover protects the company against claims arising from medical negligence or alleged medical negligence. The policy picks up legal costs and damages awards for incidents including incorrect treatment, prescription errors, misdiagnosis and failure to diagnose.
We can help across the following covers:
- Medical malpractice
- Employers liability
- Public liability
- Comprehensive motor insurance for emergency response vehicles
- Cover for medical equipment and property on location
