A good medical malpractice insurance broker does far more than simply place a policy.

When a claim or potential claim arises, your broker can be one of your most valuable sources of guidance. Many medical practitioners are unsure whether an incident is serious enough to notify, and that's where an experienced broker can help.

They can assist in determining whether:

• the matter may qualify as a claim or circumstance;
• urgent notification is required;
• additional information should be gathered; or
• the claims team should be engaged immediately.

Receiving the right guidance early on can help prevent costly mistakes and ensure the matter is handled correctly from the outset.

This is not the policy inception date. Rather, it is a historical date that determines how far back your cover extends for past work or services rendered. Provided a claim is first made against you after the inception of the policy, work performed on or after this date may be covered.

Defence costs are often one of the most important features of medical malpractice cover. Even when a claim is ultimately defensible, the legal process can be costly. Practitioners may require attorneys, expert opinions, clinical record reviews, correspondence, formal responses, and legal representation.

Subject to the policy terms and conditions, the insurer may appoint or approve legal representatives and cover reasonable, necessary, and relevant defence costs associated with a covered claim.

The cost of medical malpractice insurance depends on the practitioner and the risk.

There is no single “standard” premium that applies across all doctors or all practices. A GP, a dermatologist, a neurosurgeon, an obstetrician, a physiotherapist and a day hospital do not present the same risk profile.

Because defence costs may form part of the overall limit, practitioners should review both premium and cover adequacy. The cheapest option is not always the most suitable option, especially if your limit, retroactive date or practice activities are not properly aligned to your exposure.
