Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about healthcare insurance in Oregon

What is medical malpractice insurance?

Medical malpractice insurance covers claims of negligence, errors, and omissions by healthcare providers. It covers legal defense costs and damages if a patient claims your care caused injury or harm. It's essential for all licensed healthcare providers in Oregon.

Do Oregon healthcare providers need cyber liability insurance?

Yes. Healthcare providers store protected health information (PHI) subject to HIPAA regulations. A data breach can result in significant HIPAA fines, notification costs, and patient lawsuits. Cyber liability insurance covers breach response costs, regulatory fines, and third-party claims.

What is the difference between occurrence and claims-made malpractice policies?

Occurrence policies cover incidents that happen during the policy period, regardless of when the claim is filed. Claims-made policies cover claims filed while the policy is active and typically require 'tail coverage' when you retire or change carriers to protect against future claims for past incidents.

Does healthcare insurance cover telemedicine services?

Coverage for telemedicine varies by policy. As telehealth has expanded, many carriers now include telemedicine in their professional liability coverage. However, multi-state telemedicine may require coverage in each state where patients are located. Insure Pacific can help Oregon healthcare providers find policies that properly cover telemedicine.

What is employed physicians coverage vs. independent contractor coverage?

Employed physicians are typically covered under their employer's malpractice policy. Independent contractors and self-employed physicians need their own individual malpractice coverage. If you practice at multiple facilities or have any independent practice activities, you may need separate coverage beyond what your employer provides.
