Insurer's report of malpractice payments
A malpractice insurance issuer must submit a report to the board whenever they make a payment, on behalf of an osteopathic physician, in excess of $20,000 as part of a malpractice settlement or award. The issuer must also submit a report to the board if the negligence or incompetence of a covered physician results in the issuer making three or more claims within a year. Issuers must submit these reports within 60 days of a claim settlement or verdict or face a fine of up to $250.
