As a dentist, you might have heard that SDC fines aren't insurable, or that your policy can't cover your clinic or staff, or that coverage doesn't extend beyond Singapore. At Howden, we challenge these norms and offer solutions like:
- Coverage for SDC fines related to malpractice.
- Protection for you as an individual dentist, with options to extend to your clinic and staff.
- Global coverage, excluding only the USA and Canada.
We provide comprehensive cover without higher premiums and even offer extended coverage into retirement at no extra cost. Our policy includes a 24-year run-off cover upon retirement or cessation of practice.
