MedPro's New Educational Microsite Explains Differences In Consent Provisions
MedPro debuts an educational microsite that outlines why consent provisions in your malpractice policy really do matter. A consent provision spells out whether you have control in settling a malpractice claim. Common exceptions include binding arbitration, a hammer clause, relocation or board approval, among others. Also, language in your policy might indicate that you can be deemed "unreasonable" or "incompetent." All of these exceptions may open the door to force a settlement without your approval and potentially ruin your ability to practice medicine.
Your career is defined by your reputation and good name. MedPro offers you pure consent authority – no exceptions. Learn more about potential consent exceptions that may take control away from you when you need it most. Click here for further explanation.
