What Delaware requires of medical spas

Delaware requires workers’ compensation from the first employee.

Medical spas in Delaware are regulated by the Delaware Board of Cosmetology and Barbering, within the Division of Professional Regulation. Underwriters ask about licenses and training, so make sure every service you offer is within the license of the person performing it.

Coverage checklist for medical spas in Delaware

• Medical professional liability — written for procedures, providers and the medical director arrangement.
• General liability — premises injuries and property damage.
• Property or a business owners policy — high-value lasers and devices, with equipment breakdown.
• Workers’ compensation — nurses, aestheticians and front-desk staff.
• Cyber liability — patient data and photos.

Claims medical spas actually face

Most claims against medical spas come from the service itself rather than the premises. Typical examples:

• A complication after an injectable treatment
• A claim that a procedure was performed outside a provider’s scope
• A data breach involving patient records and photos
