These innovative enterprises, dubbed "bedpan mutuals" by their commercial competitors, melded the skills and knowledge of physicians and insurance professionals into a new approach to addressing medical malpractice problems. Today, the nation's physician and dentist-owned medical malpractice insurance companies dominate this market, providing protection to more than 60% of all physicians in private practice in the United States.

Why Form a Captive? One of the chief functions of a captive is to facilitate the efficient financing of risk within an organization. In addition, captives form part of the overall financial planning structure for a corporation; act as a shield against upswings and downturns in the commercial market; serve as a direct insurance company that issues policies to subsidiaries in a group or, can serve as a reinsurance company that assumes risks behind commercial insurers.

Duane Castles - Benefits of Membership: Worse yet, as malpractice insurance became too expensive or unavailable altogether, many physicians began limiting their practice or stopped practicing entirely. For example, the insurance crisis meant many rural areas lacked access to any OB/GYN services.

Single-Owner Captive: Also referred to as "pure captive", insures only the risks of the owner or the owner's subsidiary operations.

Captive vs. Traditional? Commercial insurance companies sell insurance to the general public and are licensed in all states in which they do business. By contrast, captive insurance companies insure only their owners, who are sophisticated entities with the ability to manage and retain their own risk. Consequently, the degree of regulatory oversight required for captives is different than that which is required for commercial insurers. The captive is licensed in only one state, and operates under the captive insurance law of that domicile.

duane castles - CICA Honors 2008: The release of the new logo denotes the initial phase of a comprehensive branding campaign—a complete new visual identity—for the PIAA. A long-term plan will guide the gradual transition of the identity into all of the Association’s print and electronic communications, including a complete redesign of its website—expected to be available to the public sometime this year.
