To
determine the cost of insurance for individual practitioners,
please follow these 3 easy steps:
| CATEGORIES:
Be
sure to select the category that best represents
your estimated number of ANNUAL client
visits. See examples at right to assist you
in calculating your visits. |
Category
1
250 OR FEWER ANNUAL
CLIENT VISITS
(Average of 5 or fewer visits per week) |
Category
2
MORE THAN 250 BUT
LESS THAN 750 ANNUAL CLIENT VISITS
(Average of 6-14 visits per week) |
Category
3
750 OR MORE ANNUAL CLIENT
VISITS
(Average of 15 or more visits per week) |
|
Find
your category and then find the section that applies
to you.
Note: Section 3 is only for Psychologists.
|
|
| Examples: |
|
•
One client seen 3 times
per week = 3 visits
•
One
group session with 6 group
members = 6 visits
•
One
session with 2 family
members = 2 visits
•
One
client seen for 3 hours
in one day = 1 visit
|
| IMPORTANT:
If you are a W2 salaried employee but only want coverage
for private practice work done outside of that employment,
please select the category that best represents your number
of ANNUAL private practice visits only. If you would like
coverage for the employment as well as any private practice,
be sure to select the category that best represents the
number of ANNUAL client visits for both. |
