Our flagship program is our medical malpractice insurance. We are able to obtain favorably discounted rates for practices from state licensed, approved and reinsured carriers.

Independent Physicians of the Carolinas
Founded in September 2008 as a forum for independent physician groups to share ideas and discuss issues that are faced by non-hospital owned medical practices. IPC matured to a point where we feel that the most effective measures to preserve our independence is through legislative action.
The Charlotte healthcare market, as well as the majority of both North and South Carolina, is dominated by two major hospital systems. As a result, independent physicians, or those providers not controlled by a hospital based healthcare system, are few and far between. Oftentimes, the independent physician is a solo practitioner who does not have the resources available to be a profitable and viable alternative to the hospital based healthcare systems.
