Answer:
"Trainees are covered by the Federal Government's own malpractice coverage under the Federal Tort Claims Act".
Explanation:
Malpractice or liability coverage for trainees who are on rotation or assignment at VA is covered under the malpractice coverage of the Federal Government. Under the Federal Tort Claims Act, trainees are considered employees of the Federal government and thus have immunity from lawsuits. In this regard, the government acts as their primary insurer.
