What Are the Key Differences Between CNA and Mylo Medical Malpractice Insurance?

Facility Towers and Specialty Shopping

CNA lists facilities and providers such as ambulatory surgery, dialysis, clinics, and home health, and describes primary and excess options. Mylo says it customizes medical-malpractice coverage to the buyer’s specialty and compares policies from multiple carriers. A facility or specialized practice should check whether both proposals cover the same clinicians, locations, and services before comparing premium. [1] [4]

Form Choices and Cyber

Mylo explains claims-made and occurrence forms and optional tail reporting after a claims-made policy ends. CNA’s healthcare brochure instead describes a claims team with medical-malpractice litigation experience. For a practice changing carriers, compare Mylo’s form and tail choices with CNA’s claims resources, then confirm the form offered by each. [4] [1]

What Should You Confirm in CNA and Mylo Medical Malpractice Insurance Quotes?

  • Ask Mylo to identify each insurer, specialty class, form, and tail option in the compared quotes. [4]
  • Ask CNA for the form, retroactive date, and any separate cyber proposal. [1]
