Pendulum leads the healthcare industry in conducting on-location and comprehensive desk-based risk assessments. Pendulum risk assessments are an effective tool utilized by insurance underwriters, agents, and brokers to make proactive and informed decisions regarding professional liability insurance coverage and market placement.
A written report of assessment findings, including recommendations, is sent to the client and the insured after the assessment. The risk assessment report provides the insured guidance on strategies to minimize professional liability risk and improve defensibility. This report may also assist the provider in acquiring professional liability insurance.
