Frequently Asked Questions About Midwife Insurance

What is Midwife Liability Insurance?

Midwife Liability Insurance can protect you in the event of injuries or damages caused by medical practices of a natural or prescribed medicated birthing experience and related services.

In addition to compensating victims for medical bills or the cost of replacing or repairing their property, liability insurance may protect you if an injured party sues. Without the proper coverage, you could be responsible for paying thousands of dollars in damages.

At XINSURANCE, our customized insurance solutions for midwives, doulas, and birthing centers can offer the same coverage as other policies but with additional coverage to fill in gaps or exclusions to give you true peace of mind.

Is malpractice insurance mandatory among midwives?

Depending on the organization or facility in which the midwife is employed, malpractice insurance may or may not be required. However, many would argue the benefits of carrying additional coverage because employer-paid coverage may not be adequate in covering financial losses, and representation may be lacking in quality.

How much does midwife insurance cost?

The cost of midwife insurance can vary depending on factors such as the location, scope of practice, services offered, and previous claims history. At XINSURANCE, we provide personalized quotes based on your specific requirements. Our underwriting team can work with you to determine the right coverage for your midwifery practice.

Does midwife insurance cover home births?

Yes, midwife insurance can cover home births. XINSURANCE offers liability insurance solutions to midwives, including coverage for home births, ensuring that you are protected in case of any unfortunate events or claims that may arise during the birthing process, regardless of the setting.

What insurance coverage do midwives need?

Midwives need professional liability insurance coverage to protect themselves from potential lawsuits arising from their services.

However, any additional insurance coverage needed for midwives will depend on your unique circumstances. XINSURANCE does not provide a cookie-cutter policy that applies to everyone. Instead, we talk to you and learn more about you and/or your employer. We then develop an insurance solution that provides customized coverage based on your needs. This all-in-one approach allows you to pick the coverage you want to have on your insurance policy.

What are some examples of midwife malpractice?

Birth injuries caused by midwives usually result from one of the following criteria: informed consent, negligent credentials, failure to assess the baby’s condition, and failure to have in place or follow adequate policies/procedures.

Can I be insured if I've been dropped or rejected by an insurance company?

Yes, XINSURANCE can help you even if you’ve been declined, canceled, or non-renewed by an insurance company. We step in to provide an insurance solution when others can’t or won’t.
