What to report: Occurrences and Claims 

An occurrence with respect to the furnishing of, or failure to furnish professional services, is an event or series of events resulting in unintended or unexpected injury to a patient, which may give rise to a claim.  

Claims are demands, complaints, or legal papers (including lawsuits and demands for arbitration) served on an insured. Report all occurrences, claims, and lawsuits immediately. Reporting triggers coverage, and by reporting immediately, you will recall details that could be important in helping your case.
