Best's Review Releases White Paper on How the Physician-Employment Movement Is Affecting Medical Liability Coverage

  2012 JUL 13 (VerticalNews) -- By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Insurance Weekly News -- Best's Review magazine has released a new interactive white paper on the impact of the gathering movement in which doctors are transitioning from individual practices for group and hospital employment. In the United States, that movement is projected to soon include more than 50% of physicians. This new physician workforce is causing risk managers and insurers to rethink retention levels, underwriting criteria, capacity needs and how to account for long-term risk. It is based on the webinar "Workforce M.D.: How the Physician-Employment Movement Is Affecting Medical Liability Coverage," sponsored by Lexington Insurance Company.
