Medical Protective Decreasing Medical Malpractice Rates in Nevada

Nevada Insurance Commissioner Alice A. Molasky-Arman has approved revised classification relativities filed by the Medical Protective Co. for physicians and surgeons.

The revised factors contemplate an average 5.4 percent rate decrease and are a reflection of the improving experience in Nevada.

The Medical Protective Co. is a member of the Berkshire Hathaway Insurance Group and insures approximately 512 Nevada physicians and surgeons. The new rates became effective on Dec. 1, 2006.
