What is Home Care Insurance?

Home Care Insurance is a specialized bundle of coverages that protects agencies, caregivers, and facility owners from industry-specific financial risks. 

In California, it is the foundation of a compliant business. Whether you provide companion care or high-acuity nursing, it covers legal defense, medical settlements, and property damage that could otherwise bankrupt your agency.

Home Care Insurance Solutions

Protect your home care business with McDonough Insurance. Tailored coverage safeguards non-medical care, home health, assisted living, nursing homes, and hospice, protecting staff, clients, and property from liability and unexpected risks.

The McDonough "Risk-First" Strategy

Top Workers' Compensation Insurance

For home care agencies in California, Workers’ Comp is often the largest expense. We specialize in Top Workers’ Compensation Insurance strategies that go beyond the basic premium. We audit your historical data to uncover misclassifications and apply credits that lower your non-medical home care business insurance cost. Whether you are a small start-up or a large agency, we ensure your staff is covered and your costs are controlled.

Comprehensive Business Insurance

Your agency needs more than just a generic policy. We provide tailored Business Insurance that acts as a home health care policy. We focus on the specifics: home health liability insurance, general liability insurance for home care agency owners, and small business insurance for home care agency growth.

Professional Risk Management Solutions

Insurance is the safety net, but Risk Management Solutions are the floor you walk on. Mike McDonough provides a “risk-first” approach. We help you implement safety protocols that prevent injuries before they happen, effectively lowering your insurance for my home care agency. From hospice risk protection to nursing home risk coverage, we identify “hidden gaps” in your current setup to prevent costly lawsuits and state audits.

What Does Home Care Insurance Cost?

The cost of home care agency insurance in California is custom-calculated based on your specific level of care, annual payroll, and safety record. While companion-care agencies typically have lower premiums, those providing high-acuity nursing or assisted living liability see higher costs due to increased medical exposure. At McDonough, we manually audit your “Class Codes” to find safety credits that automated “instant” bots miss.
