Medical Malpractice
Insurance
Medical malpractice insurance, also known as professional liability insurance for healthcare providers, is designed to cover physicians, surgeons, nurses, and other medical professionals against liability incurred as a result of errors and omissions in performing their professional services. This type of insurance is essential because even the most skilled and diligent healthcare practitioners can face situations where a patient might claim harm due to negligence, misdiagnosis, improper treatment, or failure to treat.
How does it apply to you?
For healthcare startups and scaleup companies, whether they're opening new clinics, developing innovative medical technologies, or offering telemedicine services, medical malpractice insurance is indispensable. The medical field, by its very nature, is fraught with uncertainties. Despite the best intentions and utmost care, adverse patient outcomes can and do occur. Such incidents can lead to legal claims, where both the financial costs of defense and potential settlements or judgments can be substantial.
Explained
Medical malpractice insurance not only provides the necessary financial protection against these claims but also offers peace of mind to healthcare professionals. Knowing they're backed by such insurance, practitioners can focus on patient care without the constant fear of potential litigation. Moreover, having this insurance is often a prerequisite for practicing in hospitals or medical facilities and is deemed a standard of professionalism in the healthcare world.

How much cover
do you need?
Most organisations that require you to have medical malpractice cover will often-almost specify a limit of cover that you require in order to work with them and their patients. It's also very common for the NHS to specify a limit of cover under their procurement contracts, so you are usually given a solid guide as to what limits you require.
