ATLANTA (PRWEB)
April 09, 2020

Leading healthcare liability insurance provider MagMutual today announced new premium discounts on medical professional liability policies as they renew next year, for those policyholders who experienced lower patient volumes in 2020 as a result of the coronavirus outbreak. Discounts will extend through to 2023 policy renewal period.

“This COVID-19 crisis has altered the way our country is delivering healthcare,” said Joe Wilson, MD, executive chairman of MagMutual. “And because of these changes, many of our PolicyOwners are seeing fewer patients and doing fewer elective procedures. As a mutual company, we believe our PolicyOwners should not pay the same amount of premium when they are caring for substantially fewer patients.”

The company intends to file these discounts with the respective states’ Departments of Insurance during April 2020. Upon approval, MagMutual will inform its policyholders of their new rates at renewal. The premium discount is in addition to the company’s recently announced nine-month payment deferral option.

“This means that over a three-year period, in effect, we ensure our PolicyOwners do not pay for the exposures they did not experience due to lower patient volumes,” noted Neil Morrell, CEO, MagMutual. “Coupled with our payment deferral options, our discounted premium rates also mean than the cash flow of the policyholders more reasonably follows their expected billing cycles, as they resume to normalcy.”
