Physicians' Reciprocal Insurers (PRI), a medical malpractice insurer in New York State, announced the renewal of a long-standing cooperative agreement with the Coalition of Asian-American IPA (CAIPA). Under the agreement, CAIPA members who are currently insured through PRI, and new members who sign up for medical malpractice coverage, can take advantage of significant discounts off standard rates. PRI offers CAIPA members a 15-percent discount on PRI premiums, and those medical professionals who meet qualifications could receive discounts of up to 39 percent in total. CAIPA is one of the largest Independent Practice Associations in New York City, with more than 1,000 members. CAIPA professionals care for more than 450,000 patients in the region. "CAIPA has been a valued partner to PRI for many years. Renewing our commitment to this highly-respected organization will allow us to continue to provide world-class malpractice insurance to the physicians and medical professionals who rely on our strength," said Bruce Shulan, CEO of PRIMMA, PRI's wholly owned Attorney-in-Fact. "We welcome our returning CAIPA members, and look forward to adding more in the coming months."
