FAQs

Should I get claims-made or occurrence coverage?

Most medical malpractice policies are claims-made. Claims-made policies are popular because they tend to have lower initial premiums than occurrence coverage. If you’re concerned about claims that arise after the policy expires, you can buy an extended reporting period endorsement (commonly known as “tail coverage”).
