McPhee & Associates Services Overview

A Brief Overview of McPhee’s Organization and Managed Care Experience

McPhee & Associates, Inc. was founded in 1983 specifically to work with the Managed Care Industry to provide new markets for stop-loss reinsurance.  While working as a Lloyd’s of London broker, the founder, A. Lloyd McPhee, created a new market for HMO stop-loss reinsurance.  This provided much needed competition to overcome the exorbitant rates charged by the two insurers offering stop-loss reinsurance coverage at that time.

Located in Southern California, McPhee & Associates services many health systems, HMOs, hospitals, medical groups, IP As, MSOs and ACOs with reinsurance and capitation/provider stop-loss, Errors & Omissions, Director & Officers and Cyber Insurance. References can be supplied upon request.

We have longstanding relationshies with the specialized carriers and have access to all markets.

  • Assessment of risk
  • Marketing to insurers/reinsures and negotiating for the best program for the Insured
  • Present proposals and discuss with the client the options and how the coverage applies
  • Arrange and lead an installation meeting, once coverage is purchased, to discuss the coverage, terms, and responsibilities of the policy to all appropriate client personnel.

Summary

We play a very direct role in the entire insurance process.  We recognize that the objective of the Insurance program is not only to get for you the best value in coverage and price from a reputable insurer, but also to see to it that your stop-loss program operates smoothly and effectively and that claims are reimbursed accurately and in a timely basis.

We built McPhee & Associates as a service organization first and foremost.  Many brokers have larger sales forces that we do.  None have a service organization that comes close to ours or that compares in knowledge and experience.
