Curi today announced the appointment of Brad Diericx to chief operating officer of the company’s Insurance Solutions business. In this new role, Diericx will lead the core elements of Curi’s long-standing insurance business, including its medical professional liability offering. Diericx joins Curi from HDI Global, the German international insurance group, where he served most recently as president and chief financial officer of U.S. operations. With more than 26 years of experience in the insurance space, Diericx will be focused on maintaining and growing the company’s insurance footprint and portfolio.

“We are excited to have a seasoned leader like Brad at the helm of our insurance business,” said Robert Schaaf, MD, Curi board chairman. “Brad’s experience in the insurance space makes him uniquely qualified to serve Curi’s members and member practices — all while maintaining focus on the financial discipline that has underpinned Curi’s insurance success for decades.”

“With Brad, we are gaining a strategically creative and talented individual who will be sharply focused on providing extraordinary service to our members,” said Jason Sandner, incoming Curi CEO. “I am thrilled to have him join our talented Insurance Solutions team and know he will play an integral role in delivering on our enterprise-wide mission of helping physicians in medicine, business, and life.”

“I have watched Curi’s growth from afar for many years and am proud to be joining this team at such a pivotal time for both Curi and the physician community at large,” said Diericx. “Physicians and their practices are facing more challenges than ever before, and I look forward to working with the Insurance Solutions team to ensure we’re continuing to meet the needs and exceed the expectations of those we serve.”
