Is there an additional charge to cover salaried employees such as health care professionals and front office staff?
It varies with the type of employee. NORCAL does not charge additional premium for nonmedical staff or for certain health care professionals such as registered nurses, licensed vocational nurses and medical assistants. However, NORCAL does charge additional premium for health care extenders (HCEs). HCEs are certified registered nurse anesthetists, nurse midwives, nurse perfusionists, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, preceptees and podiatrists. HCEs must complete a NORCAL application, undergo an Underwriting review and be approved for coverage.
