High Risk Areas

Home > High Risk Areas

67% of claims come from these four high risk areas.

Diagnosis

Diagnosis

Diagnosis is at the heart of a quarter of the malpractice cases we see. Address the highest risk issues with these algorithms and guides.

Medication

Medication

Medication management is a complex process intertwined with assumptions and workarounds. Increase patient safety with a system of checks and double checks.

Obstetrics

Obstetrics

OB claim frequency remains stable among CRICO participants, but claim severity has risen. Continued education improves care and can lower premiums.

Surgery

Surgery

In the past 10 years, the second highest claim category faced by CRICO-insured providers has been surgical claims. Team training can help.
