As the healthcare industry continues to change, it has become increasingly difficult for physicians to focus on what matters most: healthcare. Politics, regulations, and administrative demands have increased the economic pressure, and subsequent risk, on physicians in every category. It’s safe to say, the healthcare practice of today is anything but traditional.

For medical groups to thrive in this climate, they must understand that they can no longer depend on traditional physician professional liability insurance. They need a comprehensive plan that evolves and adapts to the ever-changing healthcare industry.

We aim to protect the physician’s interest by combining our proprietary enterprise risk management coverage with professional liability coverage for physician group practices. This combination forms a comprehensive physician liability insurance product that is flexible enough to respond to the shifts that occur in the marketplace and minimizes the gaps that exist beyond the traditional professional liability template coverage.
