Claims


Dedicated to protecting physicians
When your reputation is on the line, is your company behind you?
When you buy malpractice insurance, you are not simply protecting your finances – you are protecting your professional reputation. When a claim is made against a Conventus doctor, there are some things you can count on:
  1. Good medicine will always be defended.
  2. Fellow physicians on Conventus’ Claims Management committee will peer review your claim to determine how best to defend you and protect your interests.
  3. Your consent is always required before any claim is settled.
  4. You will receive guidance and support throughout the process, not just given a lawyer to call.
We know that some claims are valid and our objective is to offer fair and swift compensation to any injured patient in these cases. However, there are hundreds of claims filed every year in New Jersey that are without merit. Many insurance companies settle these claims because they think it is cheaper to make a payment than to incur the expense of lengthy litigation. Conventus is absolutely opposed to this approach. When the doctors on our board judge the medicine to be defensible we will not settle, and vigorously seek vindication of our insured.
