James Hurley, who represented the Academy's Medical Professional Liability Subcommittee during an Oct. 8 congressional subcommittee hearing, was quoted from his testimony. Hurley said the language in H.R. 3596 may preclude the collection, aggregation and analysis of data across companies. He said that as a consequence entities would not have credible data in making loss cost determinations and may lead to reduced availability of medical liability coverage, fewer willing insurers, less vigorous competition among those that do write the coverage and higher costs to the consumer.
