Questions about this bond
Is the $25,000 the liability insurance amount?
No. The Commission lists the surety bond separately from liability and workers' compensation insurance.
Does the bond form protect only the government?
Its wording also addresses owners and parties with an interest against work/material-related loss or damage, subject to the actual form's conditions.
Does the provider application file a continuation or approve my license?
No. The form requires any continuation certificate to be filed with the Commission, and licensing qualification and approval remain separate.
