MPL Association's Introduction to Medical Professional Liability Insurance modules are specially designed for professionals who want to learn more about industry basics and gain a better understanding of an MPL insurance organization's operations and the important functions of specific departments and disciplines.
The program is designed for employees in the early phase of their insurance career, longer-term employees with relatively less experience in some of the disciplines or departmental procedures that comprise an insurance operation, physicians or other directors who are new to insurance governance, and employees of companies that provide goods and services to the MPL community.
