XL Group’s Bermuda Insurance Operations has formed a new partnership with The Sullivan Group (TSG), a provider of clinical risk and loss prevention services to hospitals, physicians and nurses throughout the US.

“For more than 27 years, XLIB has provided leading insurance solutions to this industry. This new partnership demonstrates XLIB’s continuing commitment to our clients and it is part of a multi-prong effort to realign our platform with our clients’ growing need for insurance products, including risk management support.”

Carla Greaves, senior vice president and chief casualty underwriter at XLIB, added: “As the US healthcare industry transitions to meet requirements of the Patient Protection and Afffordable Care Act, XLIB has embraced the opportunity to align with a prominent healthcare risk services consultant, such as TSG, to assist clients in improving the quality of healthcare delivery and therefore achieving better results in patient care.”
