Why Private Practising Obstetricians Are Switching to THEMIS for Medical Malpractice Insurance

Private practising obstetricians face unique challenges, particularly when it comes to securing the right obstetric medical malpractice insurance. The stakes are incredibly high; obstetric claims can involve complex, multi-million-pound lawsuits that can significantly impact your career and reputation. This is where THEMIS steps in with a distinctive approach to medical malpractice cover that’s tailored to your specific needs.

Here’s why more obstetricians are moving to THEMIS and why you should consider making the switch too.

  • Potential Cost Savings with Data-Driven Risk Assessment

THEMIS leverages advanced AI and data analytics to accurately assess your clinical risk, allowing us to offer competitive premiums which truly reflect your exposure to claims. Unlike traditional insurers, THEMIS focuses on rewarding safely practising clinicians, providing potential savings for those who meet our high standards of care. While we cannot guarantee lower premiums in every case, our targeted, data-driven underwriting often results in significant cost savings for many of our clients.

For example, one obstetrician saved over 20% compared to their previous provider after switching to THEMIS, demonstrating our commitment to offering cost-effective cover for safe practitioners. Traditional insurers often rely on broad pricing models that may not fully appreciate the nuances of your practice, leading to higher premiums. At THEMIS, we believe that if you are committed to high standards, your insurance should reflect that commitment with fairer, often lower pricing.

  • Specialist Service and Defence Expertise

In the event of a claim, you need a team that understands your speciality inside out. At THEMIS, we never outsource claims handling to third-party panels or general claims handlers. Our in-house experts, including leading legal counsel from top medical defence firms, ensure that you are represented by the best in the business, every step of the way. This is especially critical in obstetrics, where the complexity of cases can require highly specialised knowledge and dedicated support.

Given that obstetric claims can involve catastrophic outcomes and substantial financial awards, having a highly experienced, specialist team behind you is invaluable. THEMIS’s tailored approach ensures that every claim is managed with the utmost precision, protecting not only your financial assets but also your professional reputation.

  • Dedicated, Personalised Customer Care

THEMIS is exclusively focused on medical malpractice insurance. Unlike providers that offer cover across multiple insurance lines, THEMIS dedicates 100% of its resources to medical professionals. From the initial quote to policy activation, and especially during claims handling, you’ll be dealing with a team that knows your field and understands your needs.

Our commitment to customer care extends beyond claims. THEMIS policyholders enjoy access to our Medico-Legal Helpline, providing timely, specialist advice whenever you need it. This direct line to expertise means that help is always just a phone call away, whether you have a quick question or need guidance on a complex issue.

  • Guaranteed, Regulated Cover with No Hidden Surprises

THEMIS offers contractual, FCA-regulated indemnity cover that clearly outlines what is covered and under what circumstances. Unlike some providers who may offer discretionary indemnity, our policies come with legal guarantees, providing you with certainty and peace of mind when you need it most. This commitment to transparency ensures that you always know the extent of your coverage, eliminating the risk of unexpected denials or exclusions.

  • Protecting Your Reputation with Robust Defence Strategies

Obstetricians are often at the forefront of complex clinical scenarios that can attract litigation, often resulting in multi-million pound claims. THEMIS’s in-depth understanding of the legal landscape, combined with our commitment to providing robust defence strategies, ensures you are fully supported during challenging times. Our defence team works tirelessly to protect your professional reputation, offering not just financial protection but also strategic legal expertise to manage and mitigate risks effectively.

THEMIS’s combination of competitive pricing, specialist claims management, dedicated customer care, and transparent, guaranteed cover makes it the clear choice for private practising obstetricians.
