As a medical or healthcare professional, you will need different types of insurance to protect yourself and your practice. But finding appropriate insurance can be time-consuming, frustrating, and complicated. And if your insurance carrier won’t renew your coverage or you’re having difficulty finding coverage, the process can get even more complex.
