CoverWell by InjectSure, an opt-in coverage insurance that protects the client, the business, and its licensed practitioners against the inherent risks of common cosmetic and wellness procedures not covered by health, general liability, and malpractice insurance officially launched at last year's Florida Spa Association event in Key Largo, FL, and is now available in all 50 states.
This simple, affordable coverage option was developed over eight years by personal injury attorney, Patrick Tighe, and board-certified plastic surgeon, Daniel Kapp, M.D., who saw both patients and businesses suffer as a result of medical complications from aesthetic procedures. The policy is paid for by the client at the time of service and both the client and business are then covered, receiving coverage up to 60 days after the procedure for up to $250,000 in corrective care costs. Averaging just 6% of the cost of a treatment, CoverWell can easily be bundled into the cost of any service, while keeping prices competitive. “We know that the vast majority of skin and bodycare procedures are trouble-free,” says Tighe. “But the little-known reality is that if something goes wrong or there is a bad reaction from a procedure, there has always only been one option for remediation. Sue the establishment for malpractice, wait on average 24 months for the suit to be tried and settled, most often resulting in pain and suffering to the client, a lost customer and a serious chance of reputational damage to the business. Meanwhile, the nature of these injuries is that they need immediate care to mitigate the damages, but the client must pay up front for any repairs or treatment. To help solve this vexing issue, we developed a warranty-type product so patients could access medical benefits within days of experiencing a complication. In addition, InjectSure covers both the client and provider within 60 days from each procedure, replacing stress and worry with confidence and peace of mind.”
