When it comes to Career Shield Insurance, that answer is a resounding yes. We offer policies that move with you. In other words, if you move somewhere, join a different practice, or even start your own, you won’t have to change your policy with us—it’ll follow you loyally!

This is a great question because not all policies are created equally. An occurrence form policy (which is what Career Shield Insurance offers) ensures that you have coverage for any claim made during the time you had an active policy—even after your policy expires. That means that if a claim arises later (after your policy with us has expired) for the time period when you were covered by us, we’ll still take care of your claim. Claims-made policies, on the other hand, only cover you for the time your claim was active. That means if someone raises a claim against you after your policy expires, but the claim was for an event that happened during your coverage, this type of policy will not protect you.

Audiologist insurance from Career Shield is made to be as simple and straightforward as possible so that our members can get in, get insurance, and get back to helping the patients under their care. That’s why we offer a single, upfront price for our comprehensive audiologist insurance policy. For just $143 per year, you can have complete peace of mind knowing Career Shield has your back. We also offer the ability to finance your plan, with rates as low as $13.11 per month depending on your credit.ings.

Audiologists are licensed through their state board in order to provide this service to the general public. With all that goes into achieving an audiologist license, protection is absolutely critical for long-term success. License protection covers the costs incurred when defending your license from a complaint against you is made to the state board. With legal defense fees and other associated costs easily running into the thousands, not having this important coverage could mean you paying a large sum out of pocket. That’s why Career Shield includes all the way up to $25,000 in license protection coverage with our audiologist insurance plan.

Absolutely! Career Shield audiologist insurance represents a great value both for the amount of coverage included under our low annual rate, but also for the incredible diversity of benefits automatically included under the policy. Members will enjoy an array of perks including savings on different health-related services like Telehealth, MetLife, and VSP, as well as early-access deals and members-only exclusives from top business service providers.

Definitely! Our plans were designed to protect audiologist professionals including audiologists, audiologist aides, and audiologist assistants. With a comprehensive suite of protection, no matter where you are in your career in audiology, you can count on Career Shield to protect you every step of the way.

Absolutely! Part-time, full-time, with Career Shield everyone has access to the same great coverage for one, low annual price. A cool aspect of Career Shield’s audiologist insurance plans is that they contain a provision known as portability. This means that you can go from full-time to part-time, self-employed, to working for a busy practice and your coverage follows you. You can even move across the country and all you’ll need to do with Career Shield is update your mailing address. We design our plans like this because we know everyone’s situation is fluid and can change in a heartbeat (that’s kind of what insurance is all about!).

Adding stability to your career in audiology is something Career Shield does best. Loss of earnings coverage helps to provide replacement of earnings and concessions for other expenses when you experience a covered loss. This important coverage is a way to help ensure that your ability to earn a paycheck isn’t impeded when you aren’t able to provide services as an audiologist.

For professionals in health and wellness, individuals coming to you usually have a medical need or condition that has necessitated their visit. When an event happens that requires first aid, you may jump into action and use whatever training and tools you have at your disposal to help. Unfortunately, without coverage, the expense of having to pay for any of the supplies you used would come out-of-pocket. That’s why Career Shield includes all the way up to $10,000 in coverage to help you pay for the costs of rendering aid to someone in need. 

Conversely, Good Samaritan coverage applies when you help someone else in an emergency and they or their family demand compensation because they were injured or died as a result. Good Samaritan coverage helps cover the costs of a claim, as well as any legal defense fees when necessary.

In short, most definitely. Working in the field of audiology is very rewarding but also carries a lot of risks. Audiologists are working around incredibly sensitive areas and even the slightest misstep can result in an injury. Often, accidents are completely unforeseeable. When a lawsuit is brought, attorneys use depositions to take sworn testimony from different parties associated with the incident. Deposition expense coverage helps pay for any attorneys fees or other costs associated with the need for you to attend a deposition.

Sadly, these days violence in the workplace is becoming more and more commonplace. If you are assaulted in the course of performing your work duties, assault on your coverage kicks in to help pay for medical expenses and/or damages to your property that resulted from the incident. Protecting our members through such tragedy, Career Shield provides all the way up to $25,000 to cover the costs of the claim.
