Services We Provide

We provide adequate, competitive medical professional liability coverage to qualified physicians. As a physician owned insurance company, participating doctors have more control over their insurance premium spend on the front end and have a stake in the profits generated at the back end.

These following services will be provided to assist PCIG in its purpose to serve the medical community with medical malpractice insurance throughout all medical specialties

Physicians Choice Insurance Services, Inc. (PCIS) has incorporated the resources and experience necessary to target specific categories of physicians, through a concentrated marketing campaign focusing primarily with the cooperation of recognized physicians’ associations, to provide them the opportunity to obtain competitively priced professional medical liability insurance. Target categories aim exclusively for members of medical specialty and state/county societies to help them meet the demands of medical professionals as they respond to a changing economy and to ensure better practice standards.

PCIS was founded with the sole purpose of providing a vehicle to reach these specific targeted associations of physicians and their staffs to help cope with a medical environment facing increased regulation, mass confusion in the payer world, along with ever-increasing operating expenses.
