Frequently Asked Questions

---

We provide a range of medical malpractice insurance for nearly all specialties.  We offer coverage for individuals, groups, medical spas, surgical centers, dialysis centers, urgent care, business office, and customized specialty policies.  We also offer other forms of property/casualty insurance upon request.

The amount of insurance you need will depend on factors such as your medical specialty, procedures performed, patient count and office hours.  We're here to help you determine the appropriate amount of coverage for your needs.

In a claims-made policy, the term Prior Acts Coverage provides coverage for your past patient exposure beginning with your policy's retroactive date, while Tail Coverage provides extended coverage for a number of years once a policy has ended due to events like career changes, hiatus, retirement, etc.

A Claims-Made Policy covers claims only if the incident happened and the claim is filed during the policy period (or an extended reporting period).  Nearly all medical malpractice policies currently in force are claims-made.

An Occurrence-Form Policy covers claims for incidents that occurred during the policy period, regardless of when the claim is filed - even years later.  This policy structure is best suited for providers such as nurse practitioners, physician assistants and registered nurses.
