UPDATE Articles
Physicians have access to a universe of information. Physicians Insurance strives to identify risk management information of relevance to members and publishes a risk management newsletter that provides perspective and guidance.

In order to help members locate specific articles, we’ve grouped the articles by subject and we’ve also created an archive of UPDATE articles listed by date. By using the links below, you can find the information you need quickly and easily.

Though some Risk Management UPDATE articles may be specific to Washington, members who practice in Idaho and Oregon will find the general advice useful. We encourage members to use this information for staff education and office policy development.

As always, not every question can be answered in an article. Members should feel free to consult a risk management expert on specific questions. A risk management consultant is available by phone Monday through Friday at 1-800-962-1399 (Western Washington and Oregon) or 1-800-962-1398 (Eastern Washington and Idaho), or e-mail us at risk@phyins.com.
