Departments of Insurance Orders/Statements 

ProAssurance continually monitors communications from Departments of Insurance for directives related to professional liability coverage and our insureds. We will continue to monitor the situation and will post updates to this page. 

The Florida Office of Insurance Regulation has issued an emergency order directing all insurance companies to provide support to insureds in Florida.  

To comply with the order and ensure that our insureds are protected during this difficult time, ProAssurance is temporarily postponing all cancellations and non-renewals in Florida until November 28, 2022. We are also extending grace periods for premium payment and deadlines for submission of required information until November 28, 2022. With regard to claims reporting or documentation, it is suggested any new claim be reported as soon as you are reasonably able to do so in order to protect you from any statutory or other court-imposed deadlines.
