Product Highlight: Healthcare Coverage With Chartis NextGen ProtectionSM

New Day Underwriting Managers has always made it a priority to keep its broker partners educated on the vast number of environmental and construction-related professional liability products available in the marketplace. As part of this priority, throughout 2011 New Day will issue Product Highlights to our broker partners. This is the first in a series that will highlight some of the products offered in Chartis Environmental’s NextGen ProtectionSM program. These products offer “enhanced coverage targeted to specific industry classes facing potential exposure to environmental liability.”
PLL Wellness ProtectSM
Hazardous materials handling, facility management and medical waste disposal are just some of the environmental exposures that a healthcare organization may face. If these risks are not properly addressed, the organization may expose itself to environmental liability claims that likely would not be covered by a general liability policy. Chartis’ PLL Wellness ProtectSM is a policy geared to the unique risks facing the healthcare industry.
