Understanding the differences between these coverage types is essential for making an informed decision that protects your career and finances. * ### [**1. Claims-Made Insurance**](https://medpli.com/occurrence-vs-claims-made-malpractice-insurance-whats-the-difference/) - Provides coverage for incidents that occurred during the policy period IF the claim is filed while the policy is still active. If a claim is filed after the policy ends, that claim is NOT covered. - Typically, it offers lower premiums at the start of the policy, but rates increase yearly as the policy matures. - Physicians must obtain [**tail coverage**](https://medpli.com/products-services/tail-malpractice-insurance/) when a claims-made policy ends to ensure protection against future claims related to incidents that occurred during the policy period. Tail insurance premiums require a one-time cash payment equal to approximately 200% of the claims-made policy’s annual premium. ### [**2. Occurrence Insurance**](https://medpli.com/occurrence-vs-claims-made-malpractice-insurance-whats-the-difference/) - Provides coverage for incidents that occurred during the policy period, regardless of when a claim is reported to the carrier. - Typically, it offers higher premiums at the start of the policy, but the rate remains constant throughout the policy’s duration. - Physicians do not need tail coverage when an occurrence policy ends.

However, Oklahoma enacted [**new tort reform legislation**](https://law.justia.com/codes/oklahoma/title-23/section-23-61-3/) in 2025 that reinstated limits on noneconomic damages.  As of 2026, noneconomic damages in most bodily injury and medical malpractice cases are **generally capped at $500,000**, with higher limits or exceptions available in certain cases involving severe permanent injuries, gross negligence, fraud, or intentional misconduct. Economic damages, such as medical expenses and lost wages, remain uncapped. **** ## **What Is the Oklahoma Medical Malpractice Statute of Limitations​?** As of 2025, the general guidelines are that patients must file a medical malpractice claim within [**2 years**](https://www.oscn.net/applications/oscn/DeliverDocument.asp?CiteID=72848) of the alleged negligent act. **[Exceptions](https://www.oscn.net/applications/oscn/DeliverDocument.asp?CiteID=93652)**: - If the injury was not immediately apparent, the two-year period begins from the date the injury was discovered. - For patients under 18, the statute of limitations may be extended. - If a healthcare provider intentionally conceals the malpractice, the statute of limitations may be tolled until the patient discovers the wrongdoing. - If a patient is deemed mentally incapacitated at the time of the alleged malpractice, the statute of limitations may be prolonged until the individual regains capacity. - If the patient continues to receive treatment from the healthcare provider for the same condition as the alleged malpractice, the statute of limitations may be extended until the treatment concludes. Keeping patients and healthcare providers informed of these exceptions is critical to protecting legal rights and filing timely claims. ## **Canceled or Non-Renewed?**** MEDPLI Is Your Best Ally**. **0% ### **Average Savings** **0+ ### **5-Star Reviews** **0+ ### **Doctors Served** We’ve helped over 7,000 doctors eliminate liability risk with comprehensive coverage & affordable rates.

Standard terms are for 2, 3, and 5 years. **Expert tip:** Choose tail coverage that extends beyond your state’s malpractice claim statute of limitations. Most physicians prefer unlimited-term policies for lasting protection, even if shorter options cost less. ** × Without tail insurance coverage, a physician can be financially liable for future claims from patient care that occured during the lapsed claims-made policy period. This liability can range from thousands to millions of dollars, based on the severity of the claim. Expert Tip:** Use our **[Medical Malpractice Payouts By State Tool](https://medpli.com/medical-malpractice-payouts-by-state/)** to get a sense of what the medical malpractice payout landscape is like in different states. ** × Tail insurance should be secured by the last day of the active claims-made policy. Often, the incumbent carrier offers a 30-day window after the policy lapses for a doctor to exercise the option to buy their tail policy. We recommend that you pursue standalone quotes before accepting an incumbent offer. Starting that process when you decide to change employers will provide more opportunities to compare quotes and secure the best rate. Expert Tip:** If you’re planning to leave your employer or have already done so, reach out to a medical malpractice insurance broker right away. Timing is critical for securing proper coverage. ** × Each medical specialty has its own insurance risk profile, which may require specialized tail insurance. A policy must reflect the exact circumstances of a physician’s practice and cover all services provided. × Tail coverage protects doctors against any future claims that have yet to be reported. × What does tail insurance typically cover?**** Tail insurance covers any financial liability associated with a medical malpractice claim. This includes: - Legal fees - Expert witnesses - Settlements - Any damages awarded to the plaintiff × When is tail coverage necessary?** Tail coverage is necessary is specific situations, primarily for professionals and organizations that use **[claims-made insurance policies](https://medpli.com/occurrence-vs-claims-made-malpractice-insurance-whats-the-difference/#:~:text=claim%20is%20submitted.-,2.%20Do%20Occurrence%20and%20Claims%2DMade%20Policies%20Offer%20Different%20Benefits%3F,-As%20you%20decide)**. There are four common instances when it’s needed: - When You’re Leaving a Claims-Made Policy - When Switching Insurers or Jobs - When Retiring or Closing a Practice - When Contractually Required × Tail insurance protects you from claims made after your claims-made policy ends. It covers incidents that occurred while you were insured but are reported later, after your policy’s cancellation date. Without tail coverage, you’d be personally responsible for any lawsuits or legal costs that arise afterward, which can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. **Expert Tip:** When changing jobs, review your insurance program with an **[experienced broker](https://medpli.com/contact-us/)** who knows how to navigate the fine print and ensure you’re protected. × Get a Quote Name *FirstLastSpecialty *Select your SpecialtyAesthetic MedicineAllergyAnesthesiologyCardiology-InvasiveCardiology-Non InvasiveConciergeDermatologyDirect Primary Care (DPC)Emergency MedicineEndocrinologyFamily PracticeFunctional MedicineGastroenterologyGynecology - No SurgeryHematologyHormone Replacement TherapyIndependent Medical Evaluations (IME)Infectious DiseaseInternal MedicineKetamine Infusion TherapyMedical DirectorMidwiferyNeonatologyNephrologyNeurologyOB/GYNOccupational MedicineOncologyOphthalmologyPain ManagementPathologyPediatricsPhysical Medicine/RehabilitationPodiatry - No SurgeryPodiatry - SurgeryPsychiatryPulmonary DiseaseRadiologyRadiology - InterventionalRheumatologySurgery: BariatricSurgery: Cardiovascular ThoracicSurgery: General (Including Trauma)Surgery: HandSurgery: NeurosurgerySurgery: OncologySurgery: Orthopedic without SpineSurgery: Orthopedic with SpineSurgery: PlasticSurgery: Colon & RectalSurgery: GynecologySurgery: Otorhinolaryngology with elective plasticSurgery: Otorhinolaryngology-no elective plasticSurgery: UrologySurgery: VascularSurgery: ThoracicWeight Loss MedicineOtherDegree *Select your DegreeMDDOCNMDPMDDSCRNANPPAPTOtherNextPhone *Email *State *Select a StateAlabamaArizonaArkansasCaliforniaColoradoConnecticutDelawareFloridaGeorgiaIdahoIllinoisIndianaIowaKansasKentuckyLouisianaMaineMarylandMassachusettsMichiganMinnesotaMississippiMissouriMontanaNebraskaNevadaNew HampshireNew JerseyNew MexicoNew YorkNorth CarolinaNorth DakotaOhioOklahomaOregonPennsylvaniaRhode IslandSouth CarolinaSouth DakotaTennesseeTexasUtahVermontVirginiaWashingtonWest VirginiaWisconsinWyomingNational Provider Identifier (NPI)(optional)(Optional) Upload supporting documents (current policy package, CV, NPDB report, and any prior claims information) Drag & Drop Files, Choose Files to Upload You can upload up to 5 files.
