Duane Castles - Physician Insurers Association of America (PIAA)

Duane Castles - Physician Insurers Association of America (PIAA)

 

The Physician Insurers Association of America (PIAA) is the only trade association representing the physician-owned and/or -operated medical professional liability insurance industry. PIAA membership comprises two categories: Primary (Regular and Associate Members) and Affiliate. Primary Members provide medical professional liability coverage to physicians, dentists, and hospitals, among others.  

Affiliate Members consist of non-insurance companies that provide goods and/or services to the medical professional liability insurance industry.

The PIAA is pleased to introduce a new tier to its successful Affiliate Membership program: a new, five-year pilot membership program for legal defense firms that have an ongoing business relationship with PIAA regular or associate members. The new program, Affiliate Membership for Defense Law Firms (AMDLF), was designed to be mutually beneficial to PIAA members and the defense law firms that serve them.

Established as a separate subgroup of Affiliate Membership, the new AMDLF category will offer the same high-quality programs and services that regular Affiliate Members receive - adapted to meet the needs of the defense counsel.

In addition, this unique program provides defense firms with unparalleled corporate exposure opportunities—opportunities that are not available anywhere else!   

Please refer to our chart that outlines the exposure opportunities available within the different levels of membership, as well as the current benefits of Affiliate Membership. Duane Castles

To become an Affiliate Member of the PIAA, please complete and return the application form.

Please note that first year membership dues will be prorated by number of full months left in the calendar year.

We hope you will take advantage of this unique opportunity to participate in an exclusive forum for defense law firms that serve the physician-owned and/or -operated medical professional liability insurance industry.

Duane Castles - CICA

CICA is the first and best source of unbiased information, knowledge and leadership for captive insurance decision-makers. Look to CICA for the best networking, education and advocacy for the captive insurance industry.

 

The Coalition for Fairness to Captive Insurers was formed last fall shortly after the IRS published its proposed regulation and CICA and VCIA determined that those regulations would have a serious negative effect on many single parent captive insurance companies. The Coalition, CICA, and VCIA made a commitment to engaging the best legal minds to prepare a detailed (39 page) technical response to the proposed regulation, along with a coordinated political effort to oppose implementation of the proposed regulation. “We are gratified that the substance of the arguments put forth in the Coalition’s technical response appears to have been a key reason for the IRS’s decision,” says Harwick. “In addition, it seems clear that marshalling support for the captive industry’s position on Capitol Hill was also critically important to this successful outcome. Our thanks to everyone, inside and outside the Coalition, who helped with this effort.”
