Brown & Brown, Inc. has launched a fully integrated, all-lines National Healthcare Practice, bringing together more than 140 professionals into a specialized team focused on delivering risk management, insurance and brokerage solutions for healthcare organizations nationwide, the company announced today.

The new unit, operating as Brown & Brown Healthcare, will serve hundreds of healthcare customers and place billions of dollars in insurance premium in domestic and international markets, the company said. Brown & Brown said the scale of the practice is designed to strengthen market access, support more competitive program design and deliver coordinated solutions across the healthcare sector.

Brown & Brown Healthcare will be co-led by Matthew Siciliani and Tracy Hoffman, with Bob Dubraski serving as practice chairman. Dubraski, who joined the company through its acquisition of Risk Strategies, has experience building and integrating national healthcare brokerage practices and advising healthcare organizations on enterprise-wide risk strategies, the company said.

Siciliani and Hoffman bring experience in managed care and professional liability underwriting, captive reinsurance and healthcare risk consulting, according to the company. Brown & Brown said both executives have played leadership roles in talent development and business growth within the healthcare insurance market.

“Healthcare organizations today face complex, rapidly evolving risks,” Steve Hearn, president of Brown & Brown’s retail segment, said in a statement. He said the national practice is intended to deliver integrated risk management solutions that allow healthcare providers to focus on patient care.

Joe Siech, a senior leader in the retail segment, said the practice’s structure is designed to provide consistent support to healthcare customers as the industry evolves.

The integrated practice will provide services across professional liability, managed care reinsurance, value-based care, property insurance, executive and cyber liability, workers compensation, captive management, actuarial services, surety and data analytics, the company said. Brown & Brown said the national structure is intended to coordinate production, placement and customer service regardless of customer location.

Founded in 1939, Brown & Brown is a publicly traded insurance brokerage with operations in more than 700 locations and a workforce of more than 23,000 professionals worldwide.
