I NEED COVERAGE NOW

Allegations, complaints, investigations, disciplinary actions, and personal capacity lawsuits in which you could be held personally financially liable are the reasons Professional Liability Insurance is available and necessary for your protection.

Key Coverage Details

VA employees may face civil, criminal, or administrative actions arising from actions taken while rendering your professional service. Agency representation is not automatic, and in some cases, you may need to secure legal counsel on your own.

A Professional Liability Insurance (PLI) policy from FEDS Protection helps protect VA employees by providing:

Legal defense for allegations, investigations, or lawsuits related to actions taken while rendering your professional service.
Indemnity coverage for personal liability exposure for actions taken while rendering your professional service.

Ask Around.

FEDS Protection is endorsed and recommended by leading federal employee associations, including the Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association (FLEOA), Federal Managers Association (FMA), and the Federal Physicians Association (FPA). Trusted nationwide, FEDS earns this support through its exceptional customer service, experienced legal defense network, and long-standing commitment to protecting federal employees.

Ask about our payroll deduction payment option—for as little as $12 a pay period, you can ensure your FEDS PLI keeps renewing effortlessly.

Heightened Exposure

Due to the heightened professional liability risks at the VA, VA employees face limited options when purchasing PLI coverage—making providers like FEDS a key solution.

Additionally, the VA offers up to a $250 reimbursement for qualified coverage, which is notably higher than what most other federal agencies provide.

VA managers, supervisors, and law enforcement officers are eligible for an up to $250 reimbursement of their Professional Liability Insurance (PLI) premium, as authorized by federal statute.
