Check your state's required coverage, whether the policy is claims-made or occurrence, who controls settlement given payment reporting, and what the quote adds for licensing and sexual misconduct claims.

Full page: [Counterpart Medical Malpractice Insurance](https://spot.insure/insurance-providers/counterpart/medical-malpractice). ## How Did Spot Rank Medical Malpractice for Healthcare Providers? Spot lists a provider only when its published Medical Malpractice Insurance information includes a documented claim (verified or company-reported) about eligibility, role, coverage or application that mentions healthcare providers. “Named for Healthcare Providers” marks a provider’s own statement of who it serves; “Related mention” marks a role, coverage or application claim. Providers with both a Spot Score and a Review Score rank first, then providers with one of the two, then providers with neither. Within each group the order is the equal-weight average of the scores the provider has, as in the industry guides; ties break on fit, then the number of documented claims, then name. The Spot Score comes from Spot’s reliability assessments and the Review Score from the provider’s rated review sources. Neither measures whether a policy fits your business or what it costs. Spot, a product of Tools for Enlightenment, publishes this research and works in the commercial insurance market. [Editorial policy](https://spot.insure/editorial-policy). ## What Do Healthcare Providers Need From Medical Malpractice Insurance? Your state may set a floor. Pennsylvania's Mcare program requires each health care provider who does 50 percent or more of their practice there to hold primary coverage from an approved carrier or an approved self-insurance plan, and to buy statutory excess coverage through Mcare by paying an assessment. Participation is mandatory for hospitals, nursing homes, birth centers, primary health centers, physicians, podiatrists and certified nurse midwives licensed there. Rules in other states differ, so check yours. [1](https://www.pa.gov/content/dam/copapwp-pagov/en/insurance/documents/departments-and-offices/mcare/about-mcare.pdf "About Mcare") Match the product to your setting. One insurer offers primary professional liability for more than 20 types of outpatient entities, including ambulatory surgery, dialysis, imaging and urgent care centers, with excess and umbrella options. Another sells an allied healthcare form for outpatient care, emerging services and tech-enabled providers, and a third bundles healthcare professional liability into a virtual care policy for telehealth providers such as doctors, psychiatrists, psychologists, nurse practitioners and therapists. [2](https://www.cna.com/sites/default/files/assets/04073b90-65ec-4053-b51a-a072591a5395/cna-healthcare-capabilities-brochure.pdf?MOD=AJPERES "Healthcare capabilities brochure") [3](https://yourcounterpart.com/products/allied-healthcare "Allied Medical & Healthcare Liability") [4](https://www.beazley.com/en-us/products/healthcare-usa/virtual-care "Virtual Care") ## Which Medical Malpractice Exposures Do Healthcare Providers Face? The claims are about care. One broker lists an incorrect diagnosis, a failure to diagnose, the wrong drug or dosage and an error during treatment or surgery as typical examples. An insurer's published claim example involves a patient who alleged the provider failed to review allergy history, obtain informed consent and give post-treatment instructions. [3](https://yourcounterpart.com/products/allied-healthcare "Allied Medical & Healthcare Liability") [5](https://choosemylo.com/medical-malpractice "Medical malpractice insurance") Timing depends on the form. A claims-made policy pays only if it was in effect both when the treatment happened and when the suit was filed; an occurrence policy pays if it was in effect when the treatment happened, even if it lapsed before the suit. Tail coverage extends a claims-made policy after you stop renewing. A carrier's specimen healthcare policy is written on an occurrence basis, with claim expenses paid in addition to the limit. [5](https://choosemylo.com/medical-malpractice "Medical malpractice insurance") [7](https://cphins.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Coverys-Professional-Liability-Policy-Specimen.pdf "Healthcare Providers Policy specimen (AHCP-0001a1 07 23; Occurrence Coverage Part AHCP-0003 07 23)") A payment is reported, not just paid. The National Practitioner Data Bank requires medical malpractice payers to report payments made for a practitioner from a written claim or judgment to the NPDB and the state licensing board within 30 days. A settlement is therefore also a record about you. [6](https://www.npdb.hrsa.gov/hcorg/whatYouMustReportToTheDataBank.jsp "What You Must Report to the NPDB") Some claims sit outside the main limit or outside the policy. In the specimen, sexual misconduct is not covered unless added by endorsement, extension or the main coverage part, and its limit sits within the aggregate. Services provided while your license is suspended, revoked or no longer valid are excluded. [7](https://cphins.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Coverys-Professional-Liability-Policy-Specimen.pdf "Healthcare Providers Policy specimen (AHCP-0001a1 07 23; Occurrence Coverage Part AHCP-0003 07 23)") ## What Should Healthcare Providers Check Before Buying Medical Malpractice Insurance? Choose claims-made or occurrence on purpose. If you pick claims-made, get in writing the retroactive or prior-acts date, the price of tail coverage and what happens if you retire, change practices or move states. If you pick occurrence, ask what claim expenses do to the limit; in the specimen they are paid in addition to it. [5](https://choosemylo.com/medical-malpractice "Medical malpractice insurance") [7](https://cphins.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Coverys-Professional-Liability-Policy-Specimen.pdf "Healthcare Providers Policy specimen (AHCP-0001a1 07 23; Occurrence Coverage Part AHCP-0003 07 23)") Ask who controls settlement. In the specimen, the insurer may investigate and settle any claim as it feels appropriate, and the clause does not mention the insured's consent. Because payments are reported to the NPDB and the licensing board, ask each insurer whether your consent is needed and what happens if you object. [6](https://www.npdb.hrsa.gov/hcorg/whatYouMustReportToTheDataBank.jsp "What You Must Report to the NPDB") [7](https://cphins.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Coverys-Professional-Liability-Policy-Specimen.pdf "Healthcare Providers Policy specimen (AHCP-0001a1 07 23; Occurrence Coverage Part AHCP-0003 07 23)") Price the licensing and regulatory extensions. The specimen pays defense expenses for licensing board complaints, and for Medicare and Medicaid proceedings begun by CMS or the Inspector General, each up to its own limit, and only for matters you first learn of during the policy period. Ask your quote for those limits and for the sexual misconduct limit. [7](https://cphins.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Coverys-Professional-Liability-Policy-Specimen.pdf "Healthcare Providers Policy specimen (AHCP-0001a1 07 23; Occurrence Coverage Part AHCP-0003 07 23)") Say how you deliver care. If you see patients by telehealth, ask whether virtual visits, other states' patients and technology-related injury are inside the policy. One insurer's virtual care policy lists telehealth providers as its audience and offers affirmative coverage for claims that result in bodily injury. [4](https://www.beazley.com/en-us/products/healthcare-usa/virtual-care "Virtual Care") ## What Do Healthcare Providers Ask About Medical Malpractice Insurance? ### Do Healthcare Providers Need Medical Malpractice Insurance? In some states and settings, yes. Pennsylvania requires physicians, hospitals and other listed providers who practice mostly there to hold primary coverage and to participate in its Mcare excess fund. Check your state's rules. [1](https://www.pa.gov/content/dam/copapwp-pagov/en/insurance/documents/departments-and-offices/mcare/about-mcare.pdf "About Mcare") ### Should Healthcare Providers Buy Claims-Made or Occurrence Malpractice Coverage? It depends on how long you plan to stay and how you want to handle the past. A broker explains that claims-made pays only if the policy is in effect when treatment and suit both happen, occurrence pays for treatment during the policy even if it lapsed, and tail coverage extends claims-made. Get the tail price before you choose. [5](https://choosemylo.com/medical-malpractice "Medical malpractice insurance") ### Does Malpractice Insurance Cover Licensing Complaints for Healthcare Providers? Sometimes, within a limit. A carrier's specimen pays defense expenses for licensing board complaints you first learn of during the policy period, up to a separate limit. Ask what your quote pays and whether prior knowledge of a complaint excludes it. [7](https://cphins.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Coverys-Professional-Liability-Policy-Specimen.pdf "Healthcare Providers Policy specimen (AHCP-0001a1 07 23; Occurrence Coverage Part AHCP-0003 07 23)") ### Who Reports Malpractice Payments for Healthcare Providers? The payer does, which is usually the insurer. The National Practitioner Data Bank requires medical malpractice payers to report payments made for a practitioner to the NPDB and the state licensing board within 30 days. Ask how your insurer handles settlement consent before you sign.
