Princeton, New Jersey—September 13, 2023— NJ Physicians United Reciprocal Exchange (NJ PURE) announced today it is exiting the medical malpractice insurance marketplace and has entered into a relationship designed to offer its insureds access to a leading A rated medical liability carrier with The Doctors Company Risk Retention Group (RRG).
“We made this difficult decision after thoughtful deliberation and careful evaluation of our options; it was our top priority to identify an alternative insurer with the same core beliefs and principles,” said Eric S. Poe, Esq., CPA, Chief Executive Officer of NJ PURE. “Protecting physicians has been a professional and personal mission for over 21 years, and The Doctors Company and its subsidiaries have a long history of outstanding member service, claims defense, physician advocacy and financial strength making the company the ideal choice for this transition.”
The Doctors Company RRG, rated A (Excellent) by AM Best, is an affiliate of The Doctors Company, the nation’s largest physician-owned medical malpractice insurer, with more than 89,000 insured physicians nationwide. The company is guided by its mission: to advance, protect, and reward the practice of good medicine.
“We commend the decades of advocacy and insurance solutions the NJ PURE team has offered to physicians in New Jersey, and we are pleased to offer their insureds industry-leading medical malpractice coverage backed by outstanding member service,” said Tammy Clark, RPLU, CPCU, Senior Vice President and Regional Operating Officer, The Doctors Company, Region II. “We understand how important it is for physicians to have a trusted partner so they can focus on what they do best—deliver care. Our team will make this transition as seamless as possible.”
