An upstart Iowa-based medical malpractice insurer is quizzing physicians on their bedside manners in hopes that a little kindness will create a fewer legal problems for its policyholders.
When United Medical Liability Insurance Co. began business mid-2005, President and Chief Executive James Krist, 48, said that he wanted to develop a malpractice carrier that is attuned to the physicians in Iowa. He didn't want a company that was issuing policies to Iowa physicians the same way it might to caregivers in Florida or California.
"We don't think there's a lot of bad medicine in this state," Krist said. "We have good physicians. And good results."
Building an insurer from the ground up gave United Medical a fresh chance to look at the way risks might be reduced.
