How We Can Help
Unexpected events and mishaps can transpire, impacting even the most diligent audiology business proprietors. For example, a customer may allege that your procedures exacerbated their hearing issues, or a visitor could experience a slip and fall on your property. These scenarios can escalate rapidly, resulting in substantial legal costs. The Audiology and hearing team at Brown & Brown can also provide insurance cover for hearing therapists, hearing aid dispensers and wax management.
Insurance for Hearing Therapists – In your role as a hearing therapist, you play a crucial role in the rehabilitation of people who have acquired hearing loss. Therefore, adequate coverage can be invaluable, as offering advice may lead to customer allegations and claims.
Insurance for Wax Management – Insurance is crucial for wax management specialists, as it can provide valuable cover for audiologists or trained professionals specialising in ear wax removal techniques such as ear irrigation, manual instrumentation, and micro-suction.

What is Typically Covered?
- Medical Malpractice Insurance – The potential for a dissatisfied patient to file a legal action presents a considerable financial risk and can even endanger one’s professional standing. That’s why it is imperative to acquire Medical Insurance coverage that meets the specific requirements of your hearing profession.
- Public Liability – Public Liability Cover aims to provide protection for your audiology business if you are held responsible for causing personal injury or property damage to a third party as a result of business operations.

Such claims can lead to personal harm and financial loss.
