Frequently Asked Questions

  • about Nacams

What is covered under liability insurance?

Liability insurance specifically covers different forms of liability, which can take the form of things like slip and fall accidents or a client being injured during a session. With NACAMS, liability coverage included general liability, professional liability, and product liability coverage. This insurance coverage also extends to hundreds of different modalities—all at once, all under the same policy. So you’re covered if you’re a cosmetologist and a client gets burned by hot wax or you're a massage therapist and your client says they were stretched too far and tore a muscle. No matter what, our coverage is designed for ultimate protection, 24/7.

Why do you need liability insurance?

Liability insurance for health, wellness, and beauty professionals is an important protection for the best coverage possible, as well as peace of mind. Liabilities are risks. You have liabilities all around you as a yoga teacherpersonal traineresthetician, and other professionals in similar fields. From clients slipping and getting injured to a bad allergic reaction, liabilities come in many forms in these industries. Rather than roll the dice with your career, you can get affordable, all-inclusive liability insurance from NACAMS in just a few clicks and practice what you love with absolute confidence.

 

What are 2 types of liability insurance?

The three main types of liability insurance include general liability, professional liability, and product liability:

  • General Liability: Applies to accidents like slip and falls which is why it's also called slip and fall insurance. Covers a wide variety of different accidents, injuries, or property damage in or around your place of business.

  • Professional Liability: Often called errors and omissions insurance or malpractice insurance. This coverage applies to accidents, injuries, and property damage that result from the actual services you provide.

NACAMS knows just how important these two liability insurance forms are which is why we include a $3 million annual aggregate and a $2 million per occurrence limit for general and professional liability.

How much does insurance from NACAMS cost? 

NACAMS offers fantastic rates for insurance plans that are the perfect fit for any budget. With multiple policy lengths, the cost of your liability insurance will vary based on what you need. Though you receive the same coverage for each plan, the cost of liability insurance will depend on your status and the length of your policy. 

The different plans NACAMS offers for liability insurance are:

  • Student: For the first year, student trainers can receive liability insurance for just $60. This allows you to be covered while you are still learning and perfecting your craft. You get the same great coverage as other plans, just at a student rate.
  • One year Pro: Our most popular option is one year of coverage for $179. You can pay in installments supported by PayPal Credit or in a lump sum, whichever is most convenient.
  • Two year Pro: Instantly save $24 by getting coverage for two years for $329. 

Do I need liability insurance if I am just a student? 

Even while you are still a student learning your craft, you still need liability insurance to keep yourself protected. Accidents can certainly still happen while you are a student in training and you could be held liable for an unfortunate circumstance. For example, say you are studying massage therapy and your client has a reaction to the oils you are using. You would need massage therapist insurance to help protect you from the out-of-pocket expense of a claim against you. 

Whether you need yoga liability insurance or personal training insurance, NACAMS has you covered for comprehensive insurance while you are a student. Get insured in a matter of minutes and protect your future career in beauty, health, and wellness.
