Running a medical practice comes with countless responsibilities, one of the biggest being protecting what you’ve built. But too often, Practice Owners overlook or underestimate the role of insurance in safeguarding their business from unexpected risks.

Rather than treating insurance as a reluctant purchase, smart Practice Owners see it as a vital safety net that ensures continuity, financial security, and peace of mind. Without the right coverage, a single event, be it property damage, cyber threats, or liability claims, can lead to devastating losses.

In this episode, we sit down with Caroline Holland from Docinsure to unravel the most common insurance mistakes Practice Owners make and how to create a structured, strategic approach to coverage that keeps your practice protected. You’ll gain insight into the key policies every practice should consider, the risks of underinsurance, and why a proactive approach to reviewing your coverage is essential.
