Why do physicians and surgeons consider using a risk management and insurance advisor?
"Physicians are under a lot of pressure. Not only to provide sound patient care, but to run their business day to day. By working with Gallagher, physicians can take a large burden off their plate and get real clarity on their malpractice insurance and risk management options, which is one of the highest cost outlays a practice or physicians group might have."
Can a physician or the practice manager research insurance carriers and products?
"They can, but the expertise of someone who performs these functions daily is much more advantageous. By asking questions, and looking at a physician's policy information, I can quickly benchmark and ascertain whether a physician's current carrier and coverage is appropriate for their situation and objectives. And then I can accurately advise them on what to change so their risk profile is minimized and their coverage is appropriate."
What makes Gallagher Risk Management different than most malpractice brokers out there?
"Gallagher Risk Management has longevity. We have a respected presence in the marketplace. We've built a broad and strong network of trusted carrier partners. This gives us superior access to products and pricing flexibility. That means our clients have access to the most competitive solutions available."
What is the best part about being an advisor at Gallagher Risk Management?
"I enjoy getting to know the physician community and listening to them tell their stories. No two practices are the same, which keeps me on my toes as every practice presents a different situation with different challenges."
It sounds like client relationships are important to you. What makes a great client relationship?
"They are very important to me, and to everyone at Gallagher. I think a solid, trusted client relationship comes down to listening. Like I just mentioned-hearing your clients' stories. Anyone can recommend and sell insurance. It's much more important to take the time to understand your clients which helps you build the perfect solution for them."
