At Britton-Gallagher, you don't need to educate us about your medical device insurance. As a leading medical device insurance specialist, we already understand. Whether you're a supplier or OEM in the orthopaedics industry, a biotechnology company or a medical device manufacturer, we know what you need-the broadest coverage for your specialty, with no liability gaps, at the lowest possible cost.

Britton-Gallagher's medical device specialists sit on more insurance brokerage councils than most any other broker in the country. This experience from the "inside out" gives us a vast knowledge base of insurance products and services available to the medical device industry from the broadest possible network of suitable insurance carriers-financially strong, stable companies-who can and have borne the brunt of the most unusual technology-oriented claims. Together, we've been down the road of contractual obligations, clinical trials, representations and warranty issues, and other critical issues. We're experienced and diverse enough to access markets around the world. And for those technology companies who are based overseas, we're naturally familiar with placing policies here in the U.S.

Medical device companies inevitably face risks beyond the standard roster of conventional business risks.

At Britton-Gallagher, we realize that there are no cookie cutter insurance solutions, but Britton-Gallagher's medical device insurance specialists can greatly simplify the process for you. Our experience covers all possible bases. With it, we've earned a reputation for outstanding medical device policy development and client service.

Based on a clear understanding of your medical device business, we will educate, inform, and help you clarify your risks, identify your coverage needs and guide the development of customized policies and risk management programs specific to your company's circumstances. We'll provide you with a risk analysis that includes:

  • A review of your company's areas of potential exposure to risk
  • An audit and review of your current insurance contracts
  • An assessment of whether your existing coverage and risk management techniques adequately address your needs
  • Special attention devoted to identifying any gaps in coverage that put your company at increased risk
