Physician's Professional Liability

ProCon provides physician's professional liability coverages through the Missouri Hospital Plan's (MHP) subsidiary, Medical Liability Alliance (MLA).  MLA offers reasonably priced, secure, non-assessable insurance protection for physicians.  In addition to MLA, ProCon has access to non-standard markets for physicians who for whatever reasons may not qualify for the standard markets.

 

 

Directors, Officers, and Trustees Liability

An important concern for all healthcare entities is the financial protection of its directors, trustees, officers, employees, and volunteers.  Donors, employees, recipients of service, vendors, investors, competitors, and even the government may bring legal action against organizations and their boards of directors.  Litigation of this sort lasts for many years, becoming a continuous financial drain on the organization.  If an organization cannot indemnify its directors, officers, or employees, either because of the litigation or as a result of the organization's insolvency, the ensuing financial burden can become the personal responsibility of the individuals involved.

ProCon provides the necessary coverages to protect the hospital through a Directors, Officers, and Trustees Liability policy (D&O).  ProCon's D&O program is written with one of the largest commercial companies with a specialty in insuring healthcare entities.

 

Workers' Compensation

ProCon is the exclusive broker for Hospital Association Team (HAT).  HAT is a multiple employer trust arrangement, incorporated by hospitals for hospitals.  This program is designed only for Missouri hospitals so as to escape the losses and additional expenses shared by other types of businesses, as in the standard market.  It also allows the hospital to avoid the ups and downs in pricing and acceptability associated with business cycles in the standard workers' compensation market.  With lower expenses and investment income returned to the Trust, hospitals benefit from lower premiums over the long run.  ProCon can also access the commercial market to provide coverage for hospitals on a guaranteed cost basis with Missouri employers and for hospitals seeking self insurance status.

 

CRIME, FIDUCIARY, AND KIDNAP AND RANSOM

Employee dishonesty coverage is the most used coverage under the crime policy.  Large losses may arise out of accounting and financial departments when proper checks and balances are not employed.  The crime policy also protects against theft from customer premises; money and securities stolen from the hospital including while in transit; forgery or alteration of covered instruments; loss from counterfeit papers and money orders; loss due to computer fraud and fund transfer.

 

 

PROPERTY PROTECTION

ProCon, in partnership with one of the largest commercial carries of healthcare entities in the USA, provides a very broad spectrum of property coverages tailored for hospitals and healthcare systems.  Coverages include broad all risk perils, business income, extra expense, and high sub limits of coverage for protection of hospitals including earthquake and flood.  ProCon can provide coverage for builder's risk, existing hospital facilities, ancillary operations, and all specialized equipment.

 

AUTO AND AMBULANCE LIABILITY

All hospitals have an auto exposure even if they don't own autos or ambulances.  The exposure can arise from employees using their personal vehicle in the business of the hospital such as making bank deposits or visiting a customer or vendor.  An employee renting a vehicle on hospital business also gives rise to an auto exposure.

 

Managed Care Errors and Omissions

Hospitals sometimes have ownership interest in HMO's or PPO's and ProCon has the markets to cover these exposures with limits of liability up to $10 million.

 

 

Other Specialty Insurance

Other specialty insurance include exposures arising out of affiliated operations, flood and earthquake in high hazard areas, limits above $25 million on D&O and $10 million on Manages Care E&O are just a few.
