GREAT NEWS FOR DERMATOLOGISTS!

We recently saved a dermatologist over $3.5K by switching them to MDAdvantage NJ Dermatology Purchasing Alliance’s program from their current medical malpractice insurance provider.  Additionally, they were provided through MDAdvantage the Supreme Advantage coverages EPLI data breach and billing defense at no additional cost.

“Doctors today face unprecedented economic challenges, and need to protect not only how they practice medicine but how they operate their businesses, “said Patricia Costante, CEO of the Lawrenceville, N.J.-based MDAdvantage. “Supreme Advantage™ was developed to help physicians in all specialties—ranging from solo practitioners to those in large groups—afford the increasingly high cost of practicing medicine in New Jersey. We are proud to be the first New Jersey-based medical professional liability carrier to provide this supplemental coverage to its insured physicians at no additional cost.”

Would you like to lower you costs and reduce your medical malpractice premium? Would you also like to be protected for employment related suits and have defense coverage for HIPPA hi-tech violations and RAQ audits? If you answered yes, which we are sure you did, What are you waiting for? MDAdvantage Discount for members of Dermatological Society’s Risk Purchasing Alliance is 25%!!!

Coverage highlights:

• Employment Practice Liability Insurance (EPLI): wrongful termination, employment discrimination  sexual harassment, invasion of privacy, and other activities.

• Privacy and Data Security Insurance (PDSI): network security and privacy violations involving HIPAA, data breaches and patient notification, data recovery and other activities.

• Medical Practice Administration Insurance (MPAI) : Medicaid audits, other types of audits and the resulting fines and penalties.

Low price dosen’t always equal great value,

At PPA, we understand you want a “great deal” when purchasing your healthcare malpractice insurance. But, if you’re involved in a claim, not only are your career and reputation at stake, but your personal assets can be as well.

 

Healthcare is changing: costly regulatory mandates are changing the way you provide patient care; insurance reimbursement rates are decreasing, and overhead expenses are increasing. Of course, your first instinct is to reduce the costs of doing business, and because healthcare liability coverage is a significant expense, you may feel compelled to shop around for the lowest priced coverage. But, as set out below, there are many reasons why the lowest priced coverage may not be the best value, and therefore, may not be in your best interest.

 

When considering healthcare malpractice coverage, we encourage you to review price in the context of value. Your selection of company and coverage will have a big impact on whether you’re getting the best coverage for your money.

Because it’s your good name.

As a dentist, you likely already understand the importance of the stability and strength your malpractice insurance carries. That’s why Professional Protective Alliance is a proud broker of Medical Protective (MedPro).

We hope you never experience a lawsuit. Unfortunately, a typical dentist in the United States is sued, on average, once in his or her career (more or less depending on location). With this inevitability in mind, it is important to remember that claims defense is really the primary service you are purchasing with your premium dollars. You are placing confidence in the insurer’s promise to defend you, and pay for damages, should you be sued in the future. After all, settlement of a claim involves more than money; it can have a long-term negative effect on your reputation, your license, and your practice.

We choose MedPro because we know you work hard to build a good reputation.  Did you know many companies settle malpractice claims without your consent?  They use loopholes like the “Hammer” clause, board approval and binding arbitration, your availability, or even dub you are “unreasonable.”  It happens all the time.  This is just one reason MedPro is a trusted leader in the professional insurance field.  They will NOT compromise ANY claim without the consent of the insured.  Give Geri Warick a call today at 201-525-1100 ext. 18 or an e-mail at gwarick@icnj.com. Our clients have the benefit of our extensive experience in matching their needs with their resource allocation and preferences.
