Best place to get liability insurance?

I have been shopping around for liability insurance but keep finding ones that have a much higher rate for LD nurses. I know someone told me the name of a company they use a while back that didn't have this...but I can't remember it. So, any ideas?

Stop looking. Why set yourself up for a lawsuit?

It was helpful. I don't want to see a fellow nurse sued. Or I could have said. Google

I have never had liability ins, but I know that NSO (Professional Liability Insurance for nurses, nursing medical malpractice.) has nursing malpractice insurance for pretty cheap.

I'd say having insurance is much better than NOT having insurance.

CYA, I say.

There is some debate over whether or not having insurance makes you a target for lawsuits...
