I don't believe it was explained to you correctly. You probably received a notice of cancellation from your insurance company and someone in the office told you they were going to put you in their indemnity company. Many direct writer insurance companies have a second company that they either have a completely different name or it may have a similar name to the main company. Allstate for instance has Allstate Insurance Company and Allstate Indemnity Insurance for people who have had too many claims or tickets and no longer fit the preferred companies guidelines.
Indemnity insurance is sometimes referred to as "traditional" insurance. An indemnity policy is one that pays any health provider that provides services within the scope of coverage; there is no "network" or "panel" of providers that you have to obtain services from to get paid under your policy. FYI--Indemnity or "traditional" insurance is the most costly in both premiums and your "out of pocket" payments. Why? Because there is no network of providers with whom prices have been negotiated. This is one of the reasons that indemnity is a shrinking portion of the dental benefits market.
If the automobile policy contract is in both names (husband and wife) then the insurance company will look to both of you for compensation of any losses that are not covered under your own policy.

Under the principle of Indemnity and the color of Law. Should a loss occur, the applicable policy with the broadest scope of coverage would automatically be treated as the primary insurance policy.

The policyholder should contact the insurance company and cancel the policy - you might get a partial refund if the premiums are paid up-to-date!
Yes you can, So long as you don't try to seek compensation for a loss under more than one policy. That would constitute double indemnity and subject you to Felony insurance fraud charges.

No, professional indemnity doesn't cover just any type of insurance. It's insurance that covers your professional life. So, everybody gets car insurance but it wouldn't be included under professional indemnity unless your car was a work asset, like for a traveling salesman.
