Does Texas medical malpractice insurance include tail coverage?

Tail coverage is not automatically included in most Texas malpractice policies. Physicians with claims-made coverage need to purchase tail insurance to protect against claims filed after a policy ends, such as when switching insurers, changing employers, or retiring.

Tail coverage typically costs 150–250% of the annual premium as a one-time payment. MEDPLI helps doctors compare tail options and find the most affordable coverage for seamless protection.
