To our Members,  

At the heart of Physicians Insurance’s claims approach is our Policyholder and Claims Committee. Formed at the inception of Physicians Insurance in 1981, this committee is now made up of 20 top physicians representing primary care, hospitals, surgery, and various other specialties. These physicians are not only leaders in their field with extensive expertise, but they are also committed to improving the practice of medicine overall.

We’re proud to report on our recent successes in court. Each defense verdict is a product of teamwork, dedication, and expertise. Thank you for your partnership in service to our members.

Healthcare organizations are responsible for validating the competency of their medical staff through credentialing and privileging. Failure to adhere to solid credentialing and privileging procedures might result in a costly negligent-credentialing claim against an organization.
