I am a dentist, licensed by the state. But if the state stayed out of it, I would still need professional liability insurance. It would be in the insurance company's best interest to only insure competent dentists, so they would check my credentials and my record before insuring me. YOu need only check to see if i have insurance to know if I am qualified, so what purpose does the license really serve? Would the fact that you had insurance _really_ say anything about your competence? Or would it just say that you had found someone who was willing to provide you with _some_ coverage at a price you were willing to pay? Without examining _your_ policy, I have no idea whether they consider you a low-risk client (i.e. highly qualified, keeping up with the latest developments in your field, etc.), or if they think you're a claim that just hasn't been filed yet. I don't know whether you have a fairly inclusive policy, or one that's so limited that the only way they'll pay is if the claimant can prove intentional premeditated damages planned at least two years in advance. And how am I to even know that this insurance company is a reputable company? Do they have enough reserves to handle potential claims and remain solvent? Do they have the expertise to evaluate your performance? So far, all I've seen from your argument is a claim that I don't need to be an expert in dentistry to tell if you're competent. However, I now need to become an insurance expert in order to determine whether or not the insurance you _claim_ to have has any validity. Rich Lemert |
