Acupuncturist insurance in Connecticut — FAQ
Do acupuncturists need insurance?+
Yes. The main policies acupuncturists need are general liability.
How much does acupuncturist insurance cost?+
A typical acupuncturist can expect to pay general liability runs $300–$750 per year, professional liability $250–$700, and commercial auto $600–$1400 per vehicle. Total annual premiums for a small operation usually range from $1,500 to $8,000 depending on coverage choices, revenue, and number of employees.
What does general liability cover for a acupuncturist?+
General liability covers third-party bodily injury and property damage — for example, if a customer is injured on site or you accidentally damage a client's property. It does not cover your own injuries or professional errors (those need workers' comp and professional liability).

No — personal auto policies typically exclude business use. If you drive a vehicle for work (transporting equipment, visiting clients, making deliveries), you need a commercial auto policy.
