Professional Liability Insurance

Professional liability insurance (PLI) for MLTs provides coverage for civil litigation damages resulting from negligence while performing their normal duties as a medical laboratory technologist.

Insurance Requirements

All provincial Medical Laboratory Technologist (MLT) regulators require Professional Liability Insurance (PLI) to a minimum of $2,000,000 or $5,000,000. Please contact the provincial regulator in the province you are planning to become registered in for more information on their PLI requirements.

CAMLPR Partnership with Harvard Western Insurance

CAMLPR has worked with Harvard Western Insurance to develop a PLI policy dedicated to Medical Laboratory Professionals including MLTs, medical laboratory assistants (MLA), and combined laboratory and x-ray technologists (CLXTs), and to meet the requirements for registration with all MLT provincial regulators.

No membership in any organization or association is required to access this insurance, making it an accessible and practical option for professionals across the country.

Medical laboratory professionals can purchase the HWI PLI policy directly through Harvard Western Insurance. Visit the Harvard Western Insurance website for more details.
