The combination of financial pressure and healthcare reform has spurred tremendous change in the way healthcare providers and payors are organizing themselves to deliver and finance care effectively.
Hospitals and physician practices are joining forces, independent community hospitals are forming alliances with like entities, and larger providers are making acquisitions to expand their reach. Organizations of all types are also taking on more financial risk as they move from “fee-for-service” to “fee-for performance” reimbursement methodologies.
With so much at stake, having the right insurance coverage is critical to help protect your organization’s finances and reputation in the event of lawsuits alleging errors or mistakes in care.
Our hospital professional liability solutions help protect healthcare organizations against legal, financial, and reputational risk arising from treatment decisions and actions.
Our healthcare liability solutions are suited to acute care hospitals, long-term acute care and rehabilitation facilities, critical access hospitals, and integrated delivery systems.
