Making sure you have the right insurance coverage
Adding menopause services to your clinic requires the right insurance to safeguard both your practice and your patients. Explore how we can help
One key element of adding menopause services to your clinic is having the right insurance coverage.
To support practitioners venturing into this field, Hamilton Fraser has launched a groundbreaking new insurance offering designed for aesthetic medical professionals providing menopause advice. Launched on 7 February 2025, this policy extension under the Hamilton Fraser Medical Malpractice policy, underwritten by Hiscox, covers consultations, prescriptions, and hormone replacement therapy (HRT) advice.
Eddie comments, “The aesthetics industry is rapidly evolving. A decade ago, menopause treatments were hardly discussed in clinics.
"Most women relied solely on their GP or didn’t recognise the conditions they were experiencing. But times are changing, and insurance providers like us are stepping up to meet these new demands.”
Key features of this new insurance extension include:
Eligibility: Exclusively available to existing Hamilton Fraser insurance customers, primarily targeting doctors and nurses. Referrals from other segments may be considered on a case-by-case basis
Scope of cover: Includes advice on menopause care, consultations, and prescriptions. Note that it’s designed for advice, not treatment
Application process: Practitioners will complete a detailed question set. A “yes” to all qualifying questions enables access to the add-on
Eddie also highlighted the risks of operating without proper insurance:
“It’s easy to get lost in the noise online, with so many quotes and policies available. Practitioners often don’t have clarity on the specific cover they need. That’s why we’re introducing this menopause add-on – to provide tailored protection for medical practitioners offering menopause care.”
