To protect themselves from litigation, physicians purchase malpractice insurance coverage. However, physicians must stay on top of their insurance rates and shop around every few years to ensure they are adequately covered at the best price.
Matthew Dobish, health care national practice leader at Marsh McLennan Agency, was quoted in Medical Economics about the state of malpractice insurance rates. He discusses what has contributed to current rates, how physicians can find the right coverage, and more.
“Working with a broker who solely focuses on medical malpractice is no longer comprehensive enough,” Dobish says. “Risks continue to develop and emerge, and how insurance policies respond to claims must be coordinated.”
