Chiropractors Protecting Chiropractors
A professional liability claim is a traumatic and frustrating experience. However, by placing your hands into those of CCPA, your level of distress should plunge merely from knowing that you and your case will receive the expert attention they deserve.
Protecting You And Your Family
Canadian Chiropractic Protective Association (CCPA) was formed by The Canadian Chiropractic Association (The CCA) in early 1986, at a time when the insurance industry abandoned the professional liability insurance field. It was designed to protect both its members and the public in the event of professional liability claims.
Comprehensive Protection
CCPA provides protection to the public and member practitioners for incidents occurring in a chiropractic practice where a claim of negligence or liability is made. The requirements for protection are that the chiropractor be fully licensed and a CCPA member practicing within the legal boundaries of a provincial or territorial act. The CCPA does not cover naturopathic or homeopathic acts. Protection is also provided for all staff who work under the direct supervision of a CCPA member and not regulated under another discipline. CCPA provides stability by utilizing a re-insurer to guarantee the availability of funds.
Advancing the profession through risk reduction
CCPA, as it continues to mature, has taken on other tasks secondary to the primary goal of protecting its members and the public. These secondary tasks include promoting the improvement of standards of care and record keeping. CCPA committed to promoting safe work habits in the practice of chiropractic.
