ABOUT US

Our Story

Comprised of responsive, results-oriented insurance professionals, Physicians Insurance Agency of Massachusetts began operations as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Massachusetts Medical Society in January 1993 The sole purpose of the agency was to offer a one-stop source for trusted insurance information and competitively priced insurance products.

Today, the agency remains committed to its original mandate. We offer choice, guidance and advocacy for our clients. Our commitment to being a trusted source of insurance information and products , and to innovating new program offerings has earned us a reputation as a leading professional liability broker in Massachusetts. We accomplished this by helping one physician, one practice, and one hospital client at a time.

We have also carefully selected a trusted network of insurers in the areas of professional liability, business insurance, health/dental, long term care and disability & life insurance, to ensure you have the finest options available. We continuously assess all our insurer relationships to ensure your access to the very best commercial coverage options available, so that we can meet your evolving needs in healthcare. And as of January 2022, we joined the Renaissance Alliance. As an Alliance member, we can offer you all the advantages of a national insurance brokerage while remaining a 100% independent agency delivering personal attention to our clients.

Physicians Insurance also has a philanthropic side supporting various charitable and non-profit organizations in our healthcare community.
