SALT LAKE CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- <\/p>\n

Now, as the only malpractice provider headquartered in Utah, MGIS offers Utah physicians increased security and peace of mind with an experienced and highly respected insurer. <\/p>\n
MGIS has a rich history of working with physicians, who are currently experiencing major change and uncertainty; and now more than ever they need to feel secure and protected over the long term, says Jeff Brunken, president of MGIS. By bringing this unique malpractice program to Utah doctors, our goal is to not only provide the highest quality insurance program at the lowest cost, but have them look to us as their local, trusted insurance partner who only have their best interest in mind. <\/p>\n
Through its partnership with Freedom Specialty, one of the strongest and highest-rated insurance carriers in the U.S., MGIS is able to offer Utah physicians maximum value with the greatest security at highly competitive prices. Utah physicians may qualify for Elite pricing at up to 30 percent cost savings*. <\/p>\n
As the neighborhood insurance provider, we couldnt be more excited to bring our expertise to Utahs physicians, said Brunken. Having all underwriting decisions and the entire MGIS leadership team from sales to operations all based right in our doctors home turf enables us to deliver more effective and personal service. More than 40 years of experience serving physicians has given us a deep, genuine understanding of their needs and interests. We look forward to putting all of that to work here in the Utah malpractice arena, for the benefit of doctors and patients alike. <\/p>\n
