Which statement best describes AANA Insurance offerings?

• A. A voluntary program offering exclusive access to affordable CRNA malpractice, health, dental, life, pet, and disability insurance
• B. A mandatory liability policy required for all CRNAs
• C. A voluntary retirement plan for CRNAs
• D. A general hospital affiliation program for CRNAs

Answer: (A)

AANA provides voluntary insurance programs that give CRNAs exclusive access to affordable malpractice and other insurance coverages through association-negotiated plans. These offerings are optional for members and are designed to meet the specific needs of anesthesia practice, often delivering competitive premiums, streamlined enrollment, and trusted carriers because the plans are arranged specifically for CRNAs through the association.

These programs cover a range of protections, including malpractice (liability) insurance as well as health, dental, life, disability, and even pet insurance, reflecting a comprehensive approach to member welfare. Because participation is voluntary, you’re choosing added protection that is tailored to the profession, rather than a requirement tied to licensure or employment.

The other descriptions don’t fit because the insurance offerings are not mandatory for all CRNAs, they are not a retirement plan, and they’re not a general hospital affiliation program.
