Medical Malpractice Insurance - Protects You And Your Firm From Lawsuits And Covers Potential Damage

 What is Medical Malpractice Insurance?

Medical Malpractice Insurance is an insurance plan that offers financial security for medical experts, specialists and professionals against lawsuits or claims related to their professional work, such as allegations of wrongdoing, negligence or failure of any task, errors and omissions, tools or treatment-related damages, etc.


Malpractice insurance cost for Canadian obstetricians is on an average CAD 31,000 a year. Whereas for neurosurgeons, it is CAD 27,900 and orthopaedic surgeons CAD 24,288. The malpractice insurance cost split between the taxpayer and physician depends upon the province and medical association as they have their own agreements.
