What it is

What home care insurance covers.

“Home care insurance” isn’t one policy — it’s a stack of a few, built around how your agency actually operates. Most non-medical agencies carry these five lines.

You don’t need to know which ones you need. Tell us about your work and your broker builds the stack.

01General LiabilityThird-party injury and property damage in the client’s home — the broken heirloom, the visitor who trips over equipment, the slip on a floor your aide just mopped.
02Professional LiabilityEven without medical care, the care itself can generate claims — a missed medication reminder, a client who falls during a transfer. This is the line licensing boards and franchisors check first.
03Workers’ CompRequired in most states once you have employees — and usually your biggest line. Lifting and transfer injuries drive the rate, which is exactly why it’s worth shopping.
04Hired & Non-Owned AutoYour caregivers drive their own cars to clients — and often with clients in them, to appointments and errands. Their personal auto policies weren’t built for that. The most common gap we find.
05Abuse & MolestationAllegations against a caregiver, founded or not, land on the agency. Many policies sublimit or exclude this quietly — and many state contracts and referral sources now require it in full.

Who needs it

Every kind of home care agency — priced differently.

Personal care & companion agencies

Bathing, dressing, meals, errands, companionship. The broadest carrier appetite in home care — most markets will quote you, which means the job is getting them to compete, not finding one who’ll say yes.

Franchise locations

Your franchisor mandates specific limits and endorsements — often including full A&M limits and additional-insured wording. We read the franchise agreement and build the COI to spec the first time.

1099 registries & contractor models

Caregiver classification is the first thing an underwriter asks about. Registries get declined by default in many markets — the fix is the right carrier plus clean caregiver agreements, not reworking your whole model.

Medicaid waiver & state-contract agencies

State contracts come with insurance schedules that don’t negotiate. We know the common state requirements and place coverage that passes the contract review, not just the quote stage.

Agencies adding a skilled line

The moment a nurse joins your roster, your risk class changes and some carriers walk. Tell us before you make the hire — we’ll place coverage that grows with you instead of forcing a mid-term scramble.

New home care agencies

First-year agencies pay more, but several of our markets write them — and most states require proof of coverage before they’ll issue your license, so this is usually step one.

Something in between?

Most agencies are a mix. Describe your actual service split in the form — that’s what your broker prices.

Common questions

Home care insurance, answered.

How much does home care insurance cost?

It depends on payroll, revenue, and claims history. As a rough anchor, General and Professional Liability together for a small non-medical agency often run $2,000–$5,000 a year; workers’ comp is usually the bigger line, driven by caregiver payroll. We quote your actual operation rather than a generic home care rate.

We’re non-medical — do we really need professional liability?

Yes. “Non-medical” doesn’t mean “no care decisions.” A fall during a transfer, a missed medication reminder, a dietary mistake — these become professional liability claims. It’s also the line most state licensing boards and franchisors require on your COI.

My caregivers are 1099 contractors. Is that a problem?

It’s a placement problem, not a dead end. Many markets decline 1099-heavy models by default, and misclassification creates real coverage gaps — but carriers exist that write registries and contractor models on their own terms. Expect questions about your caregiver agreements and who directs the work.

Do I really need abuse & molestation coverage?

Yes — and check whether your current policy sublimits it to a fraction of your GL limit, because many do. State Medicaid contracts, franchisors, and referral partners increasingly require full limits. An allegation alone, even one that’s dismissed, generates defense costs your agency shouldn’t carry alone.

My caregivers drive clients in their own cars. Am I covered?

Not by default. Your caregivers’ personal auto policies respond first — and often poorly — while your agency gets named in the suit anyway. Hired & Non-Owned Auto fills that gap. If you own vehicles or reimburse mileage systematically, we’ll price commercial auto alongside it.

I’m starting a brand-new home care agency. Can I get covered?

Yes. New agencies pay more for the first 12 months, but several of our markets write them — and since most states require proof of coverage before issuing your license, this is usually step one. Expect questions about your own background in care.
