Most Physical Therapy Clinics pay between <strong>$480 and $2,880 per year</strong> for Commercial Crime, with the median physical therapy clinic paying roughly <strong>$1,200/year ($100/month)</strong>. Premium is rated per $1,000 of employee dishonesty limit; the spread reflects payroll/revenue size, three-year claims history, operational profile, and state. Clean operations consistently land in the lower half of that range.
What does physical therapy clinic typically pay for Commercial Crime?
For a typical physical therapy 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 factors that increase Physical Therapy Clinics Commercial Crime cost
The variables that drive Commercial Crime pricing for Physical Therapy Clinics fall into a predictable hierarchy. Top five:
- Patient census and acuity mix
- Provider credentialing and prior malpractice claims
- Regulatory survey deficiency history (CMS, state DOH)
- PHI volume and cyber-readiness posture
- Resident-to-staff ratio and turnover
Underwriters review these in roughly that order. The first factor on the list usually determines whether a risk is in the standard market or pushed to surplus lines, where rates run 1.5-3x higher.
Inside the Physical Therapy Clinics Commercial Crime premium spread
Two Physical Therapy Clinics can both be quoted on Commercial Crime and end up at opposite ends of the $480–$2,880/year range. The shape of each profile:
Low-end profile (~$480/year): owner-operator or small crew, no claims in three years, clean operational documentation, single-state operation, conservative scope. Eligible for standard-market preferred tiers and bundled placements.
High-end profile (~$2,880/year): larger crew or fleet, one or more paid claims in three years, broader operating territory, more aggressive scope mix. May still be in standard market but with debit pricing, or pushed to surplus depending on the carrier appetite.
What limits should Physical Therapy Clinics carry on Commercial Crime?
Limit selection on Commercial Crime for Physical Therapy Clinics is mostly driven by contract requirements and risk-tolerance — not premium. Moving from $1M to $2M per occurrence on the same risk typically adds only 15-25% to premium because the loss distribution above $1M is thin for most healthcare provider risks.
If your contracts already require $2M, buying the lower limit and stacking umbrella to reach $2M effective limit is usually cheaper than carrying $2M primary outright. Coverage Axis routinely models both structures and lets the client pick the cheaper math.
The Physical Therapy Clinics Commercial Crime renewal cycle: what to expect
The Commercial Crime renewal for Physical Therapy Clinics is not just a price update — it is also an audit. Carriers true-up the premium based on actual exposures (payroll, revenue, vehicles, etc.) over the prior year, which can produce a return premium or additional premium independent of the new-year rate.
Most Physical Therapy Clinics see renewal premium moves of ±10% on a clean year. The audit can add or subtract more, depending on how much your actual exposure changed from the original policy estimate.
The Commercial Crime submission package for Physical Therapy Clinics
To quote Commercial Crime accurately on Physical Therapy Clinics, carriers typically require: ACORD 125 (commercial general application), ACORD 126 (general liability supplemental) where applicable, three years of loss runs, payroll details, revenue split by operation type, and a brief operations narrative.
Submissions that arrive complete are quoted in 1-3 business days. Submissions missing loss runs or payroll detail typically cycle for 5-10 days while the underwriter chases the missing information — and during that delay, the account often gets deprioritized vs cleaner submissions in the underwriter's queue.
Where is the healthcare provider Commercial Crime market in 2026?
Physical Therapy 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 Physical Therapy 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.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked Questions
Healthcare claims have severity tails that drive premium loading. Even on non-malpractice lines, the healthcare provider loss shape pulls in higher rates than non-healthcare peers.
Malpractice at state-required minimums plus excess (typically $1M-$5M aggregate). GL/Property at facility replacement cost. Cyber at $1M-$5M depending on PHI volume.
Materially. State tort caps, regulatory regimes, and CON requirements all factor into pricing. Some states have dramatically more carrier competition than others.
Yes. Bundling malpractice + GL + property + cyber + WC under one specialty carrier captures 8-15% multi-line credit. Healthcare-focused programs offer the richest credits.
Staffing ratios directly correlate to loss frequency in healthcare provider risks. Carriers ask for ratios, audit them, and price accordingly.
