Who Pays for the Nurses Liability Insurance?
Did you ever wonder what happens when a doctor or nurse gets sued? Well, it is not a pretty process I can assure you that. Usually the hospital has great liability insurance and great lawyers, so if they believe it was not the doctor or nurse fault, they can fight it. That bill is paid by the hospital. Some doctors and nurse do not work for a hospital. They need to get there own insurance believe it or not. Doctors get Malpractice insurance and nurse get Nurse Practitioner Liability Insurance. It the price of doing business in the ever changing medical field.
