Overview for Agents and Brokers
Veracity’s Medical Equipment Product Liability Insurance program is aimed at wholesale placement through agents and brokers. We combine targeted underwriting, flexible policy options (claims-made and occurrence), and access to admitted and non-admitted markets to secure terms for a wide range of medical device risks. Our team evaluates design, manufacturing, repair/service operations, distribution channels, and product use environments so you can present a complete submission.
Ideal Accounts and Appetite
Manufacturers and assemblers of hospital-grade medical devices, including some Class III invasive devices.
Distributors, importers, and resellers of diagnostic and therapeutic equipment.
Companies that provide repair, refurbishment, or servicing of medical devices used in clinical settings.
Accounts with documented quality control, FDA/regulated-device history, and formal service procedures typically receive the most competitive consideration. Risks with ongoing recall activity, habitual regulatory enforcement, or undeclared device classifications may be declined or require specialized terms.
Underwriting Notes and Minimum Premiums
Underwriting focuses on product complexity, intended use, annual revenue from medical device operations, distribution territories, and loss history. Minimum premium varies by carrier and state. Veracity places with multiple carriers and can consider both admitted and excess & surplus solutions depending on appetite and exposures.

This program is available in the following states and territories: AL, AK, AZ, AR, CA, CO, CT, DE, FL, GA, HI, ID, IL, IN, IA, KS, KY, LA, ME, MD, MA, MI, MN, MS, MO, MT, NE, NV, NH, NJ, NM, NY, NC, ND, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VT, VA, WA, DC, WV, WI, WY.

Why Work With Veracity Insurance Solutions, LLC
As a specialty MGA and E&S broker, Veracity offers underwriters with device-specific expertise and placement flexibility across admitted and surplus markets. We streamline submissions and provide access to additional coverages (inland marine, hired/non-owned auto, employee benefits liability) so you can assemble comprehensive packages for your clients. Our focus on medical device product liability helps you place technically complex accounts that standard markets may decline.
Example Account Scenarios
You might have a client that manufactures hospital ventilators with documented ISO processes and routine service contracts — this program can consider product and limited professional liability with higher limits and tailored endorsements.
Or you may represent a regional service provider that refurbishes and repairs diagnostic imaging equipment for hospitals — Veracity can evaluate inland marine options for equipment in transit and product liability for repaired units.
