What is an Additional Insured?
An additional insured is when someone such as an Entity, Landlord, or Organization other than the AMTA member, has an insurable interest in the liability risk.
Adding an entity or organization to your coverage as an additional insured provides coverage to them for their vicarious liability arising out of your actions while rendering professional services as a massage therapist.
Why Should You Practice with Liability Insurance?
If you are sued for malpractice, Professional Liability coverage protects you from the potentially devastating effects of a lawsuit. Sometimes, this type of coverage is also called medical malpractice insurance.

AMTA does have a Master Policy aggregate limit of $10,000,000. This means that during any given policy period, which is one calendar year, the AMTA master policy will pay up to $10 million for claims that occur during that policy period.
