Does anyone have any experience with Medical Protective (Medical Protective - The Leader In Healthcare Malpractice Insurance) malpractice insurance?

Hmmm...never heard of them. I gotta be honest though, 120,000 providers doesn't seem like a lot to me...
I hadn't heard of them either. An FNP friend recommended them to me - she has been with them for several years. My current rate continues to climb each year (never had a claim against me or my policy) and I had one insurer who wouldn't issue a policy to me because I spend part of my time practicing in a correctional facility. Medical Protective's quote was about $400/year less than NSO. S&P rate Medical Protective with the highest financial strength rating (higher than NSO/CNA) possible. Any other experiences would be appreciated!

Have you checked proliability.com? They used to be Marsh, then Liberty Mutual; I think it is still Liberty Mutual with a slightly different name. I don't practice in the same specialty as you, but it's worth doing an online quote. Just renewed my policy and it was a bit over $350.
P.S. Gave up on NSO when they raised their rates substantially a few years ago.
Thanks for the suggestion. Proliability = Mercer…I most recently attempted to take out a policy with them (because their rates are great)…but they won't write a policy if you practice (any speciality) in a correctional facility. It looks like my only options are NSO or medical protective.
