Managing your organisation’s Insurance Programme

How resilient is your current insurance programme? How joined up is your insurance programme to your risk register?

Our health care consulting team combines deep industry knowledge and leading technology to market your risks to the right insurers, potentially generating competitive pricing and terms for your organisation. Keeping you informed and enabling better decisions, we can assess the effectiveness of your current risk transfer programme and help you understand how your current insurance programme aligns to risks within the business. We can identify gaps which may lead to financial loss and help you manage uninsurable risks to minimise any potential losses.

Medical Indemnity for Consultants

What is the consequence for your business if a consultants discretionary medical indemnity fails to respond?

Discretionary medical indemnity is not uncommon and primarily offered by Medical Defence Organisations. Consultants are advised to arrange appropriate medical indemnity for their practice, however the guidance provided by the General Medical Counsel (GMC) is limited. There is choice in the market and an alternative to the traditional MDO is to source medical indemnity from an insurer. Our healthcare consulting team can help you understand the implications to your private practice should a discretionary indemnity fail including complexities of vicarious liability, contingent coverage and the key areas to look for when checking a consultant’s medical indemnity.
