Medical Malpractice Insurance for Radiologists

As a radiologist, you play a crucial role in patient care. You interpret complex images such as X-rays, CT scans, and MRIs and collaborate with other healthcare professionals. Radiologists also make critical decisions and recommend treatments that can impact patient outcomes.

However, this critical role also comes with risks. According to the American Medical Association, radiology faces a significant risk of malpractice claims, often stemming from missed diagnoses or communication issues. In the recent AMA study, more than 40% of radiologists reported that someone sued them during their career.

That's why having the right radiologist malpractice insurance is essential. Indigo offers comprehensive coverage specifically designed for radiologists so that you can gain peace of mind while focusing on patient care.

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”).
