We believe effective risk management minimizes the potential of a claim being brought against you. Therefore, our policies require your participation in our aggressive risk management program which is preventative medicine against lawsuits.

Our proactive approach begins with a personal visit to your office by one of our risk management staff. During that visit, we will explain our “patient’s release” and provide guidance for its use. We will also supply you with our “Dear Patient” brochures which are meant to educate your patients regarding the malpractice crisis.

We have found that our countersuit philosophy which we describe during our first visit has been embraced by virtually all insured physicians.

We believe Fighting Back is Good Business

• It protects our doctors
• It discourages future frivolous lawsuits
• It keeps premiums down
  

Our risk management staff will explain the benefits of the Emmi program if it applies to your practice. This program is meant to augment the informed consent process. Details can be found at www.rightfield.net.

We are also receptive to discussion of any other risk management issues which may be of interest to you. We wish to establish a personal risk management relationship with our insureds. We think this will keep our insureds out of the courtroom and in their medical practices.
