Nurse Malpractice Insurance in New York

As a New York nurse, your role is essential to supporting patient health, recovery, and overall well-being. However, even the most careful healthcare professionals can face allegations of malpractice or negligence. Malpractice lawsuits can be financially devastating, with potentially expensive legal fees, settlements, or both—even if the claim lacks merit.

Having the right insurance coverage provides critical protection in the event of a claim. It also demonstrates to patients and employers that you take your professional responsibilities seriously.

Thank you for your professionalism and patience and helpfulness with my insurance needs for my new business. Thank you, Lizette, as well for all of your help - you are sincerely appreciated and you are an asset to BizInsure LLC!
FEEDBACK: In my personal opinion, your telephone customer service needs to be improved. Whomever basically and initially answers the phone calls lately needs a new headset, honestly. I know you record all of your calls; however, listening skills truly needs to be improved also, IMO and if I ask someone to please take a message, and they tell me they are going to do so, then follow through and send that message to the main person I'm trying to reach. I have had difficulty getting back to the "exact" insurance agent with whom I've been working with and it's been a bit frustrating handling this current 2025-2026 renewal.
BizInsure has always been a necessary and important business resource.
I spent several hours comparing quotes and itemized coverage options from multiple agencies, and BizInsure LLC came out on top. The process was fast, the pricing was competitive, and the experience was refreshingly straightforward. I’m looking forward to a continued, stress-free partnership with BizInsure.

My agent Jazmine is the "Best," she explained everything thoroughly and provided my company with what I think is The Best insurance Rate!
Savannah is absolutely awesome! She took the time to thoroughly explain the policy from page 1 to 77, making sure I understood everything. What I appreciated most was that she really listened and understood exactly what I was talking about. Friendly, professional, and with a great attitude, Savannah made the process easy and clear. I’m confident I’ll continue to use BizInsure because of her excellent support!
I couldn’t be happier with my experience using BizInsure. The process of comparing and purchasing coverage was quick, straightforward, and completely stress-free. Their platform made it easy to understand my options, and I was able to find a policy that fit both my needs and my budget within minutes.

A special thank you to Cherice Williams, who helped me with my purchase. She was patient, knowledgeable, and made sure I understood every detail before committing. Her professionalism and friendly attitude made the entire process even smoother.
