Life Sciences Liability
Download Brochure PDF

The life sciences industry was one of the first niche markets that Creechurch served when it began its operations in 1996. Today, we insure hundreds of life sciences firms across Canada.

Our liability policy provides comprehensive coverage for companies in the life sciences sector, including contract manufacturers and distributors. It is ideal for companies involved in pharmaceuticals (branded, generic or holistic products), biotechnology (research and development), medical devices(all FDA and HPB Classes I through IV), and clinical trials.

Our experience and expertise in this industry has allowed us to design a competitive policy with specialized coverages to give your clients the protection they need. From the pre-clinical stage to the distribution of a medical product, our liability policy has your clients covered.

Coverage Highlights

  • Canadian or U.S. limits
  • Worldwide coverage
  • Coverage for Bodily Injury and Property Damage
  • Full Clinical Trials coverage, including Medical Malpractice and Errors & Omissions
  • Separate sublimits for product tampering, radioactive contamination and bio-contamination coverages

Also Available: Contract Research Organization (CRO) Professional Liability
On occasion, companies may hire a CRO to conduct clinical trials on their behalf. CROs face not only a vicarious product liability exposure, but also malpractice (failure to follow the manufacturer's directions, or protocol, causing injury) and/or errors and omissions exposures (improper filing of the results, resulting in rejection or delay in drug approval, causing financial loss). We understand the unique risks that these CROs face and have developed a specialized CRO Professional Liability policy that gives them the financial loss protection they need in addition to medical malpractice coverage.
