Pro-Praxis, the healthcare industry underwriting specialist and member of the Cooper Gay Swett & Crawford Group, has partnered with Freedom Specialty, a Scottsdale Insurance Company operation.

Freedom Specialty has enhanced its commitment to the healthcare industry through a specialized excess healthcare professional liability program, with Pro Praxis underwriting these complex risks.

The Complex Healthcare program is available immediately, and can be accessed through Pro-Praxis’ preferred distribution channels.

It underwrites excess professional liability coverage for physicians, hospitals and health systems of all sizes with policy limits of up to $10 million. Additional limits are available through Pro-Praxis’ other carrier arrangements.

Craig Landi, Freedom Specialty president, said: “We look forward to combining our financial strength with Pro-Praxis’ underwriting proficiency in the healthcare liability arena.  This excess product compliments the primary liability products offered by the Scottsdale family and expands our abilities to address the capacity needs of a consolidating hospital/health system sector.” 

Robert Allen, president of Pro-Praxis, added: “The financial strength and quality of Freedom Specialty will result in a ‘market-of-choice’ for excess buyers ranging from physician groups to national health systems.”
