My malpractice is through Locum company. They use Continental casualty for 20 years. And my malpractice insurance is continental Valid till 2022 if I go through them. When I was working full time in 2003 in California , I had The doctors company as my carrier, as a lot of the full timers in that Hospital also had the doctors company. Getting Malpractice was a laborious process those days. From 2000 I had another Comp, the Medical Protective company claims made policy 2/4 million.

The recent Locum gig was interested in me joining them full time. As this place was only an hours drive I was seriously thinking and got a quote from CAP MPT, I was surprised that premium was less than 1000$. For the rest of 3 months. This new group run by a smaller AMC has contracts at surgical centers and they were not promising the hours. So basically i am working only 20-30 hours per week and i Decided against joining full time. I am going to contract independent of the locums company and use the CAP mpt.

Med pro, Berkshire hathaways insurance is supposedly the best. I am getting a quote from them For occurrence 2/4.

Any one has suggestions?
 
Most of the anesthesiologists I know in CA use CAP MPT. I use NorCal Mutual which was sold recently to ProAssurance. The problem of CAP is that it is only in CA. If you decide to do some locums out of state, you need to get another one.

All these companies are reputable ones. I think you will be fine with any of them.
