Protect your business with our medical malpractice insurance
Through our trusted panel of Lloyd’s of London Syndicates and Medical Malpractice insurance companies, we provide regulated, contractual insurance that helps protect you against an alleged or actual claim for physical or mental injury to a patient within the scope of your private practice.
We aim to provide an industry-leading product that meets all the GMC's requirements for working in the private sector.
We can tailor policies to our client's needs and can provide cover for the following:
- Medical Professional Liability
- Public Liability
- Professional Liability
- Products Liability
- Cyber and Privacy Liability
- Commercial Legal Protection
- NHS Investigation Costs
In addition, we also offer specialised advice on risk management, helping you mitigate potential risks and prevent claims before they even arise. As our valued client, you will have access to our in-house medico-legal expert, who can provide guidance and support.
Creating contractual certainty for Consultants
Unlike some of our competitors, we only provide contractual claims-made contracts of insurance, rather than the discretionary contracts of the past.
Key Differences
- Discretionary indemnity means just that, discretionary ― there is no guarantee that your provider will pay claims when required or even at the very least defend the claim on your behalf.
- Contractual medical indemnity is guaranteed cover within the terms laid out in the policy wording. The cover has clearly defined, contract-specific terms and conditions; Discretionary does not.
When presented with a claim the last thing we want is for our clients to worry and they should be confident that we are here to help, not hinder.
