Medical malpractice insurers rank high when it comes to best performers in the mid-sized commercial insurance arena.
Medical liability insurers placed in eight of the top 20 slots, according to SNL Financial’s performance ranking analysis of the best performing insurance companies in 2010. Only one workers’ compensation company cracked the top 20 due to lackluster underwriting results for the workers’ comp industry.
