Frequently asked questions
Only independent agents can shop across multiple insurers for your policy and give you unbiased recommendations. This ensures your premium is fair and competitively priced. When you go directly to an insurance plan, their agents can only recommend and sell that insurer's policies.
Your practice doesn't pay us anything directly. Insurers pay us a commission when we place a policy with them. Insurers must file their premiums with states and bake in commissions when doing so, so using a broker does not increase the cost of your coverage.
Docshield uses remote process automation to intake your previous malpractice insurance documents and pull information from dozens of federal, state, and private databases. This allows us to pre-populate the basics of your application, but we have you review this information for accuracy since it's not always up to date.
Docshield can handle malpractice coverage for a broad range of practices ranging from solo docs to 100+ physician outpatient groups. We do not work with health systems or hospitals at this time.
Of course! You can contact us with any questions via call (or text) at 914-820-5734 any time 9am-7pm ET.
