The rising occurrence of medical accidents is projected to drive the expansion of the medical professional liability insurance market moving forward. These incidents, also known as medical errors or adverse events, refer to unintended injuries or complications resulting from healthcare services or treatment. A range of factors contributes to the incidence of medical accidents, including human mistakes, system failures, or unforeseen complications. Medical professional insurance offers coverage for such unintended errors or accidents that happen during medical treatment, providing support for both the provider and the patient in the event of an incident.
