Professional Liability for Physicians
At Professional Insurance Plans, our success comes from our time in the industry, as well as our involvement with physicians. We continually participate in annual conventions, component society meetings, and sponsorship of risk management seminars. It is very important to provide education on how to avoid costly claims specific to your profession.
Professional Liability / Corporate Professional Liability
Professional Liability will protect and represent you if a malpractice claim is filed. Occurrence or Claims-Made policies with limits of $1,000,000/$3,000,000 to $5,000,000/$7,000,000 are available. It can cover just you, or it can also cover your corporation.
What is the difference between occurrence and claims-made policies?
Occurrence coverage responds to a claim based on when the treatment occurred, regardless of when the claim is actually made against you. As long as the incident occurred during the policy period, your occurrence policy will respond according to the terms and conditions of the policy- even if the claim is made after the policy period expires.
Claims-Made coverage, by contrast, responds to claims based on when the claim is first made against the insured. You must have a policy or an extension contract (tail) in effect when a claim is filed regardless of when the incident actually occurred.
