In recent years, the number of options for medical liability insurance coverage has increased significantly. This is due to greater variety in the types of companies offering medical liability insurance coverage as well as the kinds of policies they offer.
Physicians who are looking for medical liability coverage should consider a number of factors, including:
- The type of company offering the coverage
- The physician’s personal liability if the company runs into any financial difficulty
- The regulatory jurisdiction the company falls under
- Company attributes such as financial strength, performance record, claims handling, and defense attorneys
- Type and scope of the coverage and how premiums are calculated
