Medicus Insurance Company Lowers Rates 20% in Missouri

AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Medicus Insurance Company, one of the fastest growing medical professional liability insurance (MPLI) carriers in the country, lowered its base rates an average of 20% for medical professionals in Missouri.

This rate decrease demonstrates Medicus’ commitment to supporting medical professionals with affordable, quality insurance and exceptional service. “Medicus continually looks for new ways to serve our physicians and allow them to focus on the practice of medicine,” said Eugenie Shea, President, Medicus Insurance Company. “We think improving the rates for our insureds coupled with our distinctive products and service are great ways to do that.”

This rate decrease follows in a line of product innovations from Medicus.
