Basic information
Professional caregivers must have professional liability insurance.
If there are changes to the insurance contract or if the insurance contract is terminated or canceled, the insurer must notify the competent home authority. The notification must be made to the home authority that was responsible for registering the caregiver.
The notifications and proof of these changes must be submitted independently. There is no reminder to submit them.
