Sydney-based insurtech company Upcover has unveiled a new professional indemnity and public liability insurance product tailored specifically for nurses across Australia.
This initiative aims to provide comprehensive coverage that meets the unique needs of nursing professionals, including nurse practitioners, in-patient nurses, doulas, and nursing students.

The newly launched insurance offers coverage limits of up to $20 million, encompassing a wide range of services such as IV infusions, cosmetic injectables, and respite care. It addresses potential risks including physical injury, errors of judgment, negligence, defamation, and breaches of privacy legislation resulting from the loss of personal information.

Upcover's CEO and co-founder, Skye Theodorou, emphasized that the product is designed to align with the requirements set by the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA), ensuring that nurses have access to insurance that fulfills their professional obligations.

One of the standout features of this offering is the flexibility of monthly payment options, making it more accessible for nurses at various stages of their careers. This approach acknowledges the financial considerations of healthcare professionals and aims to provide a seamless insurance experience.

By introducing this specialized product, Upcover addresses a significant gap in the market, offering nurses a tailored solution that provides peace of mind and financial protection against the unique risks associated with their profession. This development underscores the growing trend of insurtech companies creating niche products that cater to the specific needs of various professional groups.
