BOSTON, Oct. 3, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- To help healthcare companies better manage the total cost of casualty claims, Liberty Mutual's National Insurance operation has introduced a specialized healthcare claims team.

The specialized claims team joins focused underwriting and risk control teams to provide healthcare companies – and the brokers and agents who support them – expert resources that understand their industry and the best ways to manage and mitigate the unique risks they face.

"Managing casualty claims for healthcare companies through a specialized team produces better outcomes by harnessing expertise and efficiency," notes Jeff Duncan, Chief Underwriting Officer, Liberty Mutual's National Insurance's healthcare practice, which provides a full range of property and casualty products to healthcare companies through brokers. "Healthcare is like no other profession. Effectively managing healthcare workers compensation and auto liability claims requires a deep understanding of clinical settings, their unique risks, and the best ways to deliver positive claims outcomes while supporting quality care."

In addition to a full range of primary property and casualty products and specialized underwriting, claims and risk control teams, Liberty offers a tailored all-lines coverage solution from a single provider that can include specialty lines from IronHealth, which also offers specialized claims handling services for its specialty coverages.
