What happens if an application is denied?

The applicant will have two choices. When the company determines it is not in a position to offer coverage, we will notify the applicant of our intent to decline the application and advise the doctor why we are considering this decision. The applicant will have the opportunity to request reconsideration by our Underwriting Committee by sending us additional or clarifying information within the time period specified in our notice. Or, the physician may withdraw his/her application and seek coverage elsewhere.

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

Best at defending claims.

An ophthalmologist pays nearly half a million dollars in premiums over the course of a career. Premium paid is directly related to a carrier’s claims experience. OMIC has a higher win rate taking tough cases to trial, full consent to settle (no hammer) clause, and access to the best experts. OMIC pays 25% less per claim than other carriers. As a result, OMIC has consistently maintained lower base rates than multispecialty carriers in the U.S.
