What is medical malpractice insurance?

Medical malpractice insurance, also known as Med-mal insurance, is a type of insurance designed to cover medical professionals against claims of negligent care. Damages can result from an act, error, breach of professional duty, or omission by a medical professional that deviates from the accepted medical standard of care.

Examples of negligence in this context:

1. The failure to diagnose 

2. Misdiagnosis 

3. Surgical errors 

4. and/or the premature discharge of a patient.
