Insurers

Virginia’s liability insurance carriers play a key role in the success of the Virginia Birth-Related Neurological Injury Compensation Program (Virginia Code §38.2-5020). All insurance carriers licensed to write and engaged in writing liability insurance in the Commonwealth are required to pay into the Fund an assessment in an amount determined by the State Corporation Commission.

Malpractice Insurers

Many malpractice carriers now either require or highly recommend that the delivering physicians they insure participate in the Birth-Injury Program. These companies believe it’s a wise decision for everyone involved. If you are a malpractice carrier and have questions about the Program, please contact us.

Reporting Form

State law requires that malpractice carriers notify the Birth-Injury Program when they become aware of a possible qualifying birth attended by a physician they insure and a participant in the Birth-Injury Program. Please use the form below to make such reports.
