I know in my past discussions with Marsh when I was IARP President and had
responsibilities as the liaison between IARP and Marsh, if life care
planning is an area of practice consistent with your education and
training, they will cover you when doing life care planning. I know nothing
that has changed.
Remember, life care planning is not a "profession;" it is an area of
practice that is trans-disciplinary. Your training and credentials as a
nurse or counselor is what makes you qualified to be covered for liability
insurance under any policy.
I urge anyone to talk to their insurance carrier about your specific
credentials, experience and policy exclusions if you have any specific
questions, but don't refer to life care planning as a profession; it's not..
