About Us
In the 1980s, many medical malpractice insurance carriers withdrew from the market, leaving providers with few options for protecting their practice. In response, a group of concerned physicians founded their own insurance company. Their mission was to defend fellow practitioners, support their business needs, and be an ally in challenging times. With integrity as a guiding value, Integris has been a partner to members for more than 40 years.
Although healthcare has changed dramatically over the years, we've stayed true to our physician roots and dedication to our members. Much more than a medical malpractice insurance carrier, we’re an industry leader providing holistic support to thousands of healthcare practitioners. We continue to grow and expand that mission with our acquisition of MedMal Direct Insurance Company, rebranded to Integris Assurance Company and CorePRO Insurance, LLC, now known as Integris Insurance Agency, LLC.
