    "How should I cover my nurse practitioner and other ancillary providers?"

    The legal landscape for healthcare is changing in the United States and the risk for advanced practitioners is increasing more and more. And as the scope of practice for Nurse Practitioners, Physician Assistants, CRNAs, and other providers continues to expand, the liability grows, as well.   So, if you’re an NP, PA, CRNA, RN, Aesthetician, or any other type of ancillary provider, what’s the best way to be covered for malpractice insurance?  Should you carry your own policy or accept the insurance being provided by your employer? And what if you’re self-employed doing 1099 or locums work?   Today we’ll address these questions and more to help you understand malpractice insurance for advanced practitioners.

    Should You Stay with the Same Carrier for a Long time? Here are the Pros and Cons!

    It can take awhile to finally land on a malpractice carrier that you really like. And once you’re all setup with them, it’s very comfortable and easy to just renew your policy year over year. And to be honest, there are many reasons why it makes sense to stay with the same carrier for the long-haul. But, there are also some drawback and potential issues with staying with the same malpractice company for a really long time. Today we’re going to talk about the Pros and Cons so that you can decide if it’s time for YOU to possibly make a change.

    One Point of Contact for ALL your Insurance Needs? Five Reasons Why It's a BAD Idea!

    Buying medical malpractice insurance can be a time-consuming, frustrating process. There are many different companies to choose from, policy types to understand and coverage nuances that can make it difficult to really know if you’re getting the best coverage at the best price. This is why most doctors prefer to work with an agent to help them compare options in the market. So, why not just have your current insurance broker – the guy who does your general liability, your business owner’s policy, your worker’s comp and your other commercial policies – do your malpractice?  Isn’t it just easier to have 1 point of contact for all of your insurance needs?   Well today I’m going to tell you why this is actually a BAD idea. No offense to your commercial insurance agent, but there are a lot of reasons why you should NOT have him handle your medmal.  Let’s talk about it together. (1:23) Direct vs. Independent Agents (4:02) Why not have multiple agents shop for you? (4:58) Why you need a specialised insurance agent **********Contact us!********** 📱💻 aegismalpractice.com 📞 888.51AEGIS [888.512.3447] **********Follow us on Social Media********** Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AegisMalpractice/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/AegisMedMal Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/aegismalpractice/ Linked In: https://www.linkedin.com/company/aegis-malpractice-solutions/about/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyDVJQuU4ihcZl3gcL6L16A

    What Happens If I Get Sued???

    According to the AMA, 1 in 3 doctors have been sued for medical malpractice. And the data that we see from the insurance carriers shows that number continues to go up, depending on your specialty, where you practice, and how long you’ve been working.  It’s very likely that you will be involved in at least 1 malpractice claim by the time you retire from the practice of medicine.  And if you’ve never been involved in a claim before, it can be a bit of an unknown… perhaps even a little scary and intimidating to think about what it's like to go through a lawsuit. So today, we’re going to talk about what happens after you get sued for medical malpractice… what the claim process actually looks like from the insurance side of things, so that you can be better prepared if and when it happens to you.  FREE DOWNLOAD: Understanding the Medical Malpractice Claims Process: https://aegismalpractice.com/malpractice-insights/what-happens-after-i-get-sued-for-medical-malpractice/ 1:32 The Five Stages of the Malpractice Claim Process 6:04 Three Tips to Protect Yourself **********Contact us!********** 📱💻 aegismalpractice.com 📞 888.51AEGIS [888.512.3447] **********Follow us on Social Media********** Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AegisMalpractice/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/AegisMedMal Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/aegismalpractice/ Linked In: https://www.linkedin.com/company/aegis-malpractice-solutions/about/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyDVJQuU4ihcZl3gcL6L16A
