Why Choose MACM?

Physician Owned
Physician Owned

In 1976, as a result of a medical malpractice crisis that existed in Mississippi, members of the Mississippi State Medical Association joined together to establish Medical Assurance Company of Mississippi. During these difficult times in the medical profession, many physicians could not purchase medical malpractice insurance for any price and chose to join together to create their own professional liability company to serve and support their needs.

MACM’s insureds benefit from physician involvement at every level. The Board of Directors and Committees consists entirely of practicing Mississippi physicians. Important decisions affecting insureds are made by their peers and by people who have vast experience with Mississippi’s medical/legal environment.

Equity Account
Equity Account

Created in 1991 by the Medical Assurance Company of Mississippi Board of Directors, the Equity Account was designed as a way to recognize physician members who were committed and faithful to the long-term viability of their professional liability insurance company. Now, more than 30 years later, the Equity Account remains one of the many benefits of coverage by MACM for existing and future members. Through the Equity Account, we can show appreciation for your time invested in MACM.

Individual Professional Liability Application

Individual Professional Liability provides the Insured coverage for the performance of professional services rendered or which should have been rendered by the Insured or any person for whose acts or omissions the insured is legally responsible (does not include a partnership, corporation, professional association, or any other physician).

Mission

Medical Assurance Company of Mississippi is an organization of physicians dedicated to providing sound, stable insurance products and quality related services to healthcare providers practicing in the state of Mississippi.
