Tail insurance is that necessary evil that you need to take care of after you’ve cancelled a Claims-Made policy. But the problem with tail is that it’s expensive – sometimes VERY expensive. So, often doctors will ask us about reducing the terms of the tail to keep costs down. But, this can be a dangerous proposition. So today we’re going to answer the question “How long do I need to carry tail insurance?" And by the end of this episode, you’ll have all the facts lined up so that you can make a decision on how long of a tail YOU need to purchase.
