QBE North America has launched QBE Integrated Advantage for Healthcare, a new dedicated unit comprised of healthcare professionals in underwriting, claims, risk solutions, and product.
The unit, led by Cindy Oard, senior vice president, underwriting leader–healthcare, delivers specialised solutions for hospitals, physician groups, medical facilities and managed care organisations.
QBE has integrated one team to provide a multi-line solution, including management liability, medical malpractice, and property, auto and workers compensation coverage.
The integrated team will provide customers with easy access to products and services.
Oard stated: “By integrating a single specialised team, dedicated to the healthcare market, we provide integrated solutions for our customers.”
“And through our specialisation, we are responsive in applying our expertise and coverages to create the best solution possible.”
Russell Johnston, CEO of QBE North America, added: “Healthcare is arguably one the largest parts of the US economy, it’s growing faster than almost any other segment in the US economy and in order to service this segment well, it requires a level of applied expertise that most companies don’t deliver.”
“At QBE, we’re enhancing the way we do business with our Healthcare customers and delivering on our strategy as an integrated specialist insurer.”
