If I am a nurse or technician or other ancillary health care employee and I work for a hospital, clinic, or practice group do I need separate coverage with the PCF?
Most ancillary health care providers, such as nurses, LPNs, lab techs, x-ray techs, physical therapist, etc who are employees of a hospital or clinic or group do not need to be individually enrolled in the PCF for coverage. It is part of the coverage provided by the hospital’s coverage. However, there are some providers that will need to be individually enrolled in the PCF to obtain coverage. This would include pharmacists, advanced practice nurses, EMTs associated with an ambulance service, Locum Tenen physicians. If there is a question, please contact the office to ensure you are properly covered.
