COA-Sponsored Insurance Programs Protect Optometrists and Support the Practice Of Optometry

The California Optometric Association works with Mercer Health & Benefits to select and manage best-in-class insurance products offered from the top insurance companies in America. Insurance plans are designed and selected with optometrists in mind and often include discounted pricing for members, enhanced coverage or both. 

For example, all optometrists need professional liability insurance (also known as malpractice insurance) to protect oneself against claims that may arise from actual or alleged errors or omissions in the course of one’s professional duties. COA members can receive 10 percent off of their premium on their next renewal if they take a risk management course at one of the major events sponsored by COA each year. Another example is the workers’ compensation plan: members are eligible to receive a 15 percent discount off the regular non-member rate.

Whether you need professional liability, workers’ compensation, a business owners package policy, health, life or disability insurance, call Mercer at 800-775-2020 or visit coamemberinsurance.com for full descriptions of each plan and information on how to apply. See how your membership can help provide you with safety and savings as well as supporting the practice of optometry.
