Nationwide, the cost of the average medical malpractice claim has increased dramatically, even as the frequency of claims against our insured clinicians has decreased. In November 2023, The Doctors Company released a study on diagnosis-related medical malpractice claims with an indemnity over $1 million. Now, to expand our understanding, we have conducted a new analysis. We began with the guiding question: Do contributing factors differ between malpractice claims with no payment and claims with indemnity payments?
