Your defense is the essence of your professional medical liability insurance. This coverage represents you, your practice, your assets and your reputation in the worst-case scenario – a lawsuit. Obviously, the threat of a lawsuit is real enough to you to warrant the purchase of medmal insurance. Unfortunately the statistics are a bit concerning - one in eight healthcare providers will have a suit filed against them in 2007. Almost 40% practitioners will face a claim in the next 5 years.*
You need the best defense. You need the experience that comes with defending every medical liability case imaginable. Your defense should be intimate with your local jurisdiction, should specialize in medmal and should have access to nationwide databases of expert witnesses and specialty-specific trial data. Our claims experts provide you with an average of over 20 years of claims management expertise. No one provides a more complete and balanced defense for dentists.
We have bags full of letters from our insured thanking us for making sure justice was done. In addition they thank us for helping them retain dignity in the process, helping them really understand the consequences and doing the right thing. In the boxes to the right we're proud to share a few of those stories.
Medical Protective can provide you with the best defense available. Is your trust well-placed?
