Entity Cover

APodA and BMS work closely together to ensure the policies offered under the APodA Member Insurance Program remain comprehensive. This year the entity coverage with BMS is changing in response to changes to the insurance market and recent claims trends.

APodA Professional Indemnity and Public & Products Liability Insurance policy: if you do not have any staff/contractors, you can continue to add your business name to your policy and be covered for entity. There is no additional cost associated with entity cover under the policy.
Entity Insurance policy: If you have staff/contractors, you won’t be covered for entity under the APodA Professional Indemnity and Public &Products Liability Insurance policy. You will need to purchase a separate Entity Insurance policy and your premium will be calculated on a per head basis.

Please reach out to BMS directly for assistance regarding your renewal or information about Entity Insurance on 1800 514 933 or email podiatry@bmsgroup.com

Please note: Staff or contractors does not refer to admin staff such as receptionists. If you have admin staff, you can still add your business name to your APodA Professional Indemnity and Public & Products Liability Insurance.

The above information is applicable to Entity Insurance and the APodA Professional Indemnity and Public & Products Liability insurance policy with BMS only.
