Overview of the Program from Kaigler & Company
Kaigler & Company offers a Miscellaneous Medical Professional program designed for small medical practices and new facility set-ups that lost coverage due to a recent carrier non-renewal. This market provides access to Lloyd’s and select domestic carriers and is positioned for straightforward primary care and other lower-to-moderate-exposure medical specialties. We provide underwriting flexibility for submissions that have a solid application and clean loss history, and we will require Kaigler & Company’s application to bind coverage.
Ideal Accounts and Appetite
- Preferred: General practitioners (GPs), family physicians, and internists—single-provider or small group practices.
- Good fit: Clinic-based specialties without high surgical exposure, outpatient-only practices, urgent care centers with low surgical procedures.
- Case-by-case: Certain specialty clinics and multi-specialty groups—submit for review.
- Declined: OB/GYN, orthopedic surgery, and neurosurgery (neuro) – these specialties are not accepted in this program.
Coverage Highlights and Advantages
- Access to Lloyd’s and other domestic carriers who will consider accounts displaced by larger carriers’ non-renewals.
- Underwriting willing to review “good” applications already completed by brokers; saves time on indications.
- Competitive terms for lower-exposure providers and new facility set-ups when underwriting criteria are met.
- Focus on placing professional liability (medical professional) coverage tailored to outpatient and clinic exposures.
Underwriting Notes and Binding
We can indicate terms from an existing, fully completed application you have already prepared. That indicated offer is preliminary—Kaigler & Company requires our own application to bind coverage. Typical underwriting considerations include practice location, claims and disciplinary history, scope of services, number of providers, and any surgical exposure. Clean applications with complete documentation are handled more quickly.
Please disclose prior carrier non-renewals and the reason when available; non-renewals due to carrier-wide underwriting changes can often be placed if the practice meets the program’s appetite.

Example scenarios where this program fits: you have a client who is a solo internist whose account was non-renewed when a large carrier exited a regional book—Kaigler & Company can evaluate and often place such risks.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of accounts are a good fit for the Miscellaneous Medical Professional program?
Primary care physicians (GPs, family practice, internists), outpatient clinics, and low-surgical-exposure specialties are preferred. Each submission is reviewed case-by-case; OB/GYN, orthopedic surgery, and neurosurgery are not eligible.
Can you use an existing application to get an indication?
Yes. If you’ve completed a thorough application, we can use that information to provide an indication. Final binding requires Kaigler & Company’s application and carrier-specific underwriting approval.
How do you handle prior carrier non-renewals?
We will review non-renewals. If the non-renewal was part of a broader carrier action rather than due to provider-specific conduct or claims history, the account may still be eligible—full disclosure and documentation help expedite review.
Are there state restrictions or filing differences?
Availability and terms vary by state and carrier. This program is offered in the states listed above; contact Kaigler & Company for state-specific eligibility and any admitted/non-admitted options.
What information speeds the underwriting process?
Provide a complete application, current loss runs, state licensing and disciplinary history, scope of services, and information about any procedures performed. A clear, accurate submission will get a faster indication and binding process.
