    Provides funding for the payment of defense and indemnity costs incurred by the insured for claims of damage incurred by third parties arising out of allegations of the insured's errors or omissions in performance of specifically described duties, whether or not the allegations are groundless or false. Managers of health care provider organizations are vulnerable to claims arising out of failure to properly screen provider credentials, conduct peer reviews, perform utilization reviews, and monitor provider competence. IPA's, MCO's, Medical Groups and clinics are all candidates for this coverage for their non- "hands on" exposures in the practice.

    Provides funding for billing Errors & Omissions for health care entities and providers for the cost of governmental investigations stemming from Medicare and Medicaid billing. Basic coverage for cost of audits, investigations, legal defense, judgements, settlements, civil fines and penalties.

    This coverage was created as a result of the rise in cases filed against health care providers during the past few years, believed to be in response to the Health Insurance Portability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) which provided funding for agencies to audit billing practices of those health care providers and entities billing Medicare and Medicaid.
