Medical Liability Insurers Offers Physicians Online Course

ISMIE Mutual Insurance Co., a Chicago-based medical liability insurer, has partnered with The Sullivan Group (TSG), Oakbrook Terrace, Ill., to provide its more than 12,000 insured physicians with access to Web-based risk and patient safety education courses. ISMIE Mutual physicians will have access to TSG's 'failure to diagnose' curriculum, which was designed to help doctors make diagnoses they may miss. Based on analysis of frequently occurring errors, TSG has been able to tailor its curriculum to focus on the highest-impact content and the most critical topics.
