Most Behavioral Health Clinics pay between $480 and $2,880 per year for Commercial Crime, with the median behavioral health clinic paying roughly $1,200/year ($100/month). Premium is rated per $1,000 of employee dishonesty limit; the spread reflects payroll/revenue size, three-year claims history, operational profile, and state.

What does behavioral health clinic typically pay for Commercial Crime?
For a typical behavioral health clinic, expect to pay roughly $100/month ($1,200/year) for Commercial Crime. The realistic spread runs $480–$2,880/year end to end.
That spread is not noise — it tracks specific underwriting variables. Within the healthcare provider segment, pricing is professional-liability-driven, so two businesses with similar revenue can land hundreds of dollars apart per month depending on claims history, payroll, and operational profile.
The losses Commercial Crime carriers price into Behavioral Health Clinics accounts
Claim severity in healthcare provider risks is what makes Commercial Crime pricing for Behavioral Health Clinics sensitive to history. A single significant paid claim within the three-year prior period typically reprices an account meaningfully — often 30-60% on the impacted line.
That is why carriers ask for three years of loss runs at every renewal. The claim count and dollar paid amounts in those runs drive your experience modifier directly, and the modifier multiplies through the base rate to produce your final premium.
How ISO codes shape your Commercial Crime premium
Commercial Crime rating for Behavioral Health Clinics starts with the ISO class code mapped to the operation. The code controls the base rate per $1,000 of employee dishonesty limit, which is then adjusted by experience modifiers and carrier-specific multipliers.
Class-code disputes are a common reason for premium overages — a behavioral health clinic placed in a higher-rated cousin class can pay 20-40% more than necessary. Asking the broker to confirm the assigned class code before binding is the single fastest premium audit.
How do deductibles change Commercial Crime cost for Behavioral Health Clinics?
Deductible trade-offs on Commercial Crime for Behavioral Health Clinics are linear inside the standard market and accelerate at higher retentions. The realistic credit schedule looks like:
- $1K → $2.5K: 5-8% credit
- $2.5K → $5K: 8-12% additional
- $5K → $10K: 10-15% additional, but only with reserve documentation
Going beyond $10K usually requires moving to a large-deductible or self-insured retention (SIR) structure that not every carrier offers for this segment.
Should Behavioral Health Clinics place Commercial Crime as part of a package?
Multi-line bundling for Behavioral Health Clinics on Commercial Crime works because carriers value premium concentration. The more lines and total premium a single insurer writes for an account, the deeper the credit they can offer on each line.
The mechanic: a 10% multi-line credit on $10K of annual premium saves $1,000 — often more than the broker can find by shopping individual lines. The tradeoff is that all the lines renew on the same carrier, so the broker has one negotiating event per year rather than several.
How Behavioral Health Clinics Commercial Crime premium evolves at renewal
Commercial Crime renewal pricing for Behavioral Health Clinics typically moves 0-10% on a clean year, 10-25% on a year with one moderate claim, and 25-60%+ on a year with severe or multiple claims. Inflation in the healthcare provider segment also lifts rates 4-8% per year independent of any individual account's loss experience.
The largest single jump at renewal usually comes from a paid claim hitting the experience modifier window. Claims roll out of that window after three years, so the worst year of pricing is usually the renewal immediately following a claim — pricing improves in subsequent years if no new claims occur.
Where is the healthcare provider Commercial Crime market in 2026?
Behavioral Health Clinics Commercial Crime pricing reflects broader commercial market conditions. Through 2024-2025 the segment hardened (carriers raised rates and tightened underwriting); in 2026 we are seeing the cycle flatten with selective competition returning on cleaner accounts.
For Behavioral Health Clinics, this means: clean accounts can find competitive renewals if shopped early; accounts with imperfect histories should expect continued upward pressure; specialty exposures (operations outside the carrier's sweet spot) still see hardening pricing because surplus appetite has not fully recovered.
