What this cover does
Business Overheads Insurance provides much-needed cover when accident, sickness or other absence affects your practice.
It can help fund hiring a locum, temporary staff, or extra hours worked by existing team members, as well as ongoing practice overheads depending on the policy selected.
Our advisers help you choose a benefit level and deferred period that balances premium with the financial impact of a longer absence.
For dental practices we can offer different benefit approaches, including options that pay against evidenced costs incurred and options that pay a requested benefit without proving every cost — while providing identical cover in all other ways.
Typical protection includes
Exact cover depends on the insurer and policy selected — your adviser will confirm what is right for you.
- Financial support during clinician or key-person absence
- Help covering locum and temporary staffing costs
- Options suited to single-handed and multi-partner practices
- Flexible deferred (excess) periods that affect premium
- Advice on how cover interacts with NHS sickness reimbursement where relevant

Common questions
How is this different from Locum Insurance?
Locum Insurance is typically focused on GP locum costs and NHS reimbursement top-up. Business Overheads Insurance is broader cover for practice costs and absences across professions such as dentistry, pharmacy, optometry and veterinary practice.
