Why do healthcare facilities need workers comp insurance?
HIGH RISKS
We know the healthcare industry has a fast paced environment. The day to day duties can cause an injury. The CDC says "Cases of nonfatal occupational injury and illness with healthcare workers are the highest of any industry sector." With workers compensation insurance, you can rest easy knowing that your employees are taken care with potential medical bills & that you can not be sued by them in a work accident instances.
FINANCIAL LOSSES
With high risks comes the potential for large financial losses. Without workers compensation for your healthcare facility, you could be paying a lot out of pocket. This could put you in a tough financial situation or leave you with less money to put into your business that you worked so hard for.
