Medical Malpractice Insurance Solutions from Bailey Special Risks
If you need a reliable partner to place Medical Malpractice and allied health liability, Bailey Special Risks, Inc. (BSR) provides flexible, non-admitted solutions through multiple specialty carriers. As a wholesale broker focused on professional liability, BSR helps agents and brokers place complex risks and tailor terms for a wide range of healthcare clients.
Ideal Accounts and Appetite
BSR’s Medical Malpractice program is constructed for diverse healthcare exposures. Typical fits include:
- Physicians and surgeons across many specialties
- Allied health professionals — nurse practitioners, physician assistants, therapists, etc.
- Medical groups, multi-provider clinics, and outpatient facilities
- Diagnostic imaging centers, clinical laboratories, and urgent care centers
- Telemedicine providers and other non-traditional or emerging healthcare models
From solo practitioners to multi-provider practices, BSR can pursue competitive solutions and structure coverage for niche or hard-to-place accounts.
Coverage Highlights and Advantages
Access to multiple specialty markets lets BSR offer flexible coverage designs. Features commonly available include:
- Claims-made and occurrence policy forms
- Consent-to-settle language when offered by the carrier
- Defense costs outside the policy limits on select programs
- Optional tail (extended reporting) and prior-acts coverage
- Customizable limits and deductible options to fit practice size and exposure
These options help agents close coverage gaps, secure terms for unusual practice profiles, and place accounts that may not fit standard markets.
Underwriting Notes and Minimum Premiums
Underwriting is pragmatic and focused on the full risk profile: specialty, scope of services, licensure, claims history, and practice controls. BSR does not publish a fixed minimum premium; the program accommodates a broad range of account sizes. Expect underwriting to request a completed application, five years of loss history, and operational details for accurate placement.
