ATLANTA, November 11, 2025 – MagMutual Insurance Company, one of the nation’s leading providers of medical professional liability insurance, today announced the launch of MyDefense™, a new model in malpractice defense that integrates legal, analytical and emotional support to deliver comprehensive protection for healthcare providers facing malpractice claims.
“We built MyDefense to go beyond legal representation,” said Neil Morrell, CEO of MagMutual. “Our PolicyOwners now have a team that delivers full-spectrum support from the moment a claim is filed.”
To ensure optimal outcomes and a better experience, seven specialized disciplines will be utilized going forward.
