A NH internist is taking his med mal ideas to the Board of Medicine. “‘My malpractice insurance went up almost 60 percent, from $7,800 to $12,800,’ Clairmont said. ‘In 2000, I paid $2,000. When I called my insurance company asking them to show me data to support why it’d gone up, the response was, ‘we don’t have to tell you.”

He was told primary care “” which he provides “” is a ‘primary loss leader.’ But he couldn’t get his hands on any information that spelled out the number of cases or kinds of problems leading to that label. Clairmont has never had a claim filed against him.”
