Professional Liability Insurance Program Physician Assistants Safeguard Your Financial Future With Your Own Professional Liability Coverage l l l More Opportunities, More Responsibilities, More Risk A malpractice suit or a charge of negligencejustified or notcould mean the end of your career. That's why we strongly urge that you have your own Professional Liability Insurance. The Marsh Affinity Group Services professional liability program contains the most up-to-date coverage available. Marsh Affinity Group Services understands that Physician Assistants are expected to perform more duties than ever before, including filing insurance claims and filling out numerous reports without clerical support. If you are sued, Chicago Insurance Company will provide you with a lawyer who specializes in professional liability cases. They will pay your legal fees, court costs and lost wages up to the maximum allowance. They will be there for you every step of the way. Protection You Can Count On, Now and in the Future Because our plan uses an "occurrence form," you are covered for designated professional services performed during the term of the insurance certificate...no matter when the suit or claim is made. You have this protection now and in the future for any claims resulting from covered services performed while the insurance certificate was in force. Employer Provided Coverage is Limited You can't rely solely on the liability protection provided by your employer. Without your own professional liability protection, you could end up paying all attorney fees, court costs and loss of wages out of your own pocket because... l There may be gaps in your employer's policy. l A suit may be filed after you have terminated employment. l Most employer-provided coverage does not cover you for actions that take place outside the workplace or for actions performed outside of your job description or when established procedure was not followed. l With employer-provided coverage, you have to share your coverage with your co-workers, your employer and the entity. l A consolidated defense for an employer usually represents the interest of the employer, not you. This protection is yours aloneindividual coverage is not shared among you, your co-workers and your institution. A qualified "consent to settle" clause enables you to make the final decision in settling your claims. And, it protects you if someone you supervise, and for whom you are legally liable, is named in a suit. Now You Know How You Can Protect Yourself The Marsh Affinity Group Services Professional Liability program written by Chicago Insurance Company, one of the Fireman's Fund Insurance Group is specifically tailored to fit the diverse needs of healthcare professionals.
