The Psychiatrists' Program: Child and Adolescent Psychiatry

The Psychiatrists' Program specializes in professional liability insurance coverage for psychiatrists and mental health professionals.

Unlike most professional liability insurance programs, we have only one focus: psychiatry. We tailor our policy and services to meet your needs. Our staff of psychiatric professional liability specialists provides personal service and expertise...you will not have to explain psychiatric terminology to us.

Child and Adolescent Psychiatrists

The Program understands that psychiatrists working with children and their families face unique challenges regarding issues such as prescribing medications, maintaining confidentiality, and obtaining informed consent. In response, we have developed a series of risk management articles and resources specifically addressing child and adolescent psychiatry. In addition, The Program offers a 15% premium reduction for child and adolescent psychiatrists.*
