Risk Management



Lessons Learned from Settlements and Trials of 2006

This CD of our 2007 OMIC audiocourse features discussions about claims resulting from a “wrong” IOL, hemorrhage during blepharoplasty, and dry eye following co-managed LASIK surgery. After listening to this CD, ophthalmologists should be better able to implement protocols to correctly identify the patient, procedure, eye, laser settings, and IOL; recognize and prepare to manage patients at risk for hemorrhage during ophthalmic procedures; and detect and disclose preoperative conditions that may put the patient at increased risk for complications or side effects.

Six reasons OMIC is the best choice for ophthalmologists in America.

Consistent return of premium.

Publicly-traded insurance companies exist to make profits for shareholders while physician-owned carriers often return profits to their policyholders. Don’t underestimate this benefit; it can add up to tens of thousands of dollars over the course of your career. OMIC has one of the most generous dividend programs for ophthalmologists and has returned more than $90 Million to our members through dividends.
