Protection for clinicians, clinics and medical teams in today’s healthcare environment
Whether you are a physician, nurse practitioner, surgeon, dentist, or part of a larger medical group, the right malpractice policy protects you and your practice from the financial and reputational fallout of a claim. It covers legal fees, settlements, and judgments, and it can help your team navigate complex legal and regulatory processes.
What Is Medical Malpractice Insurance?
Medical malpractice insurance, also called professional liability insurance for healthcare providers, pays for legal costs and damages when a patient alleges harm from medical care. It is designed for licensed clinicians and medical practices who perform diagnosis, treatment, or care-related activities. The policy steps in when allegations include negligence, errors, omissions, misdiagnosis, surgical mistakes, medication errors, or failure to obtain informed consent.
