Medical Device

Medical device insurance may be covered in product liability insurance. Still, this type of coverage is separately required for healthcare businesses, manufacturers and distributors who work with different types of medical devices. They make a heavy investment in medical equipment, tools and devices; therefore, such businesses need to find a safe way to keep their investment secure and have financial cover.

What does it cover?

The medical devices industry is fast growing, with a lot of new and innovative devices being invented. The number of lawsuits and claims has also increased in previous years due to malfunctioning devices. The medical device insurance covers businesses and organizations against:

  • Legal costs
  • Allegations made against malfunctioning devices
  • Compensation
  • Medical costs of the patients who suffered bodily harm
  • Invasive and Implantable products
  • Loss of income and/or costs incurred arising from confiscation of license
  • Contamination and subsequent sterilisation costs
  • Cover at collaborators’ and/or suppliers’ premises
  • Loss of research and development income
  • Clinical trials
  • Medical Professional liability
  • Professional liability

Who is it for?

The UK Medical Device industry is heavily regulated. The government aims to ensure patients’ and users’ safety. Hence, medical device companies need to have a policy cover to avoid the perils of patient safety and health concerns if the need arises. The medical device insurance policy is meant for the following service providers:

  • Medical centres
  • Medical devices manufacturers and distributors
  • Clinics
  • Cancer treatment centres
  • Dialysis centres
  • Laboratory facilities
