Coverage that reflects the practice today
Entities, providers, locations, specialties, procedures, and recent changes should be clear before coverage is placed or renewed.
Compare the policy, carrier, and premium—not just the renewal number.
Sheltra helps independent groups compare coverage, carriers, and premiums with claims and renewal support.
Start with a 7-minute call about your current policy, practice, and renewal.
A more complete coverage decision
Medical malpractice insurance should reflect who provides care, where the group operates, what the policy covers, and how support works when something changes.
Entities, providers, locations, specialties, procedures, and recent changes should be clear before coverage is placed or renewed.
Limits, coverage form, retroactive dates, defense terms, endorsements, and carrier fit matter alongside the premium.
Claims questions, certificates, roster updates, policy changes, and insurer communication should have a responsive path throughout the year.
How the coverage review works
Sheltra reviews the current policy and practice structure, then organizes a broader carrier comparison when it is useful.
Start with the carrier, limits, coverage form, retroactive dates, entities, locations, provider roster, and renewal timing.
When a broader market check makes sense, Sheltra can approach 5+ A-rated insurers and organize the terms for comparison.
Understand the tradeoffs, transition requirements, and next steps before changing a carrier or policy structure.
Sheltra compares malpractice coverage across multiple established insurers, helping independent physician groups evaluate more than a single renewal option.
Questions before a review
Compare the entities and providers included, limits, coverage form, retroactive dates, defense and consent terms, endorsements, carrier fit, claims support, and the path for keeping coverage continuous if you change insurers.

Your current policy and renewal date are useful starting points. A current provider roster, named entities, locations, procedures, and recent practice changes can help clarify what the coverage needs to reflect.
Your next renewal does not have to be a black box
