Errors and Omissions (E&O) Coverage Is Required for All Agents

An errors and omissions (E&O) insurance policy is very important to help protect you and your business from financial disaster should you ever face litigation. It is also required for all Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Texas (BCBSTX) producers, as outlined in your Producer Agreement with us.

1.10 Errors and Omissions Coverage.
Producer agrees that for the term of this Agreement, Producer shall at all times be covered by an errors and omissions policy of insurance in full force and effect. Upon request, Producer shall provide HCSC with a copy of a certificate of coverage which coverage shall not be permitted to lapse unless at least 30 days prior written notice has been given to HCSC.

Do we have your certificate of coverage?
Be sure that BCBSTX has a copy of your certificate of coverage on file. If you have already submitted a certificate, there is no need to submit it again. Remember that you must renew your coverage annually, and provide a certificate of coverage upon renewal.

Submit your certificate of coverage via the Producer Services tool on Blue Access for Producers^SM:
     Home > Requests Assistance > Errors & Omissions Upload
