Good questions.
Worth asking.
Does a guest artist’s certificate protect the studio?
It does not settle the whole question. Review the working agreement, insured names and allegations that could be brought against the studio itself.
Are conventions included in studio insurance?
Declare the locations, activities and event requirements and ask for written confirmation. Equipment transit and temporary premises can need separate consideration.
Does signed consent replace treatment liability protection?
No. Consent is part of the treatment process; insurance has separate conditions, exclusions and insured definitions. Review both for the actual services.
