Greenbook Financial Services, Inc., Extends Risk Management Platform
Selects Medical Justice as Preferred Service Provider of Proactive Malpractice Protection Solutions
April 18, 2005 - SAN DIEGO - Greenbook Financial Services, Inc., today announced an extension to the company's risk management platform by selecting Medical Justice as a preferred service provider of proactive malpractice protection solutions for its customers. Greenbook client doctors seeking to reduce the threat of frivolous legal claims and damaging effects to reputations and finances will now have access to this patented legal strategy.
"Greenbook looks at each of our client's financial life in its totality, and we believe that it's just as important for a doctor to protect his or her income and assets as it is to make sound investment decisions," said Robert Holcomb, Chief Executive Officer, Greenbook Financial Services. "Medical Justice is a tremendous addition to our risk management portfolio, complementing traditional disability and life insurance products to help healthcare professionals minimize the impact of unexpected events."
Designed by doctors for doctors, Medical Justice is intended to deter proponents of frivolous lawsuits and systematically pursue counterclaims. Plan options include basic day-forward coverage, as well as coverage for past events and pending lawsuits. "Frivolous medical malpractice lawsuits are one of the greatest risks facing healthcare professionals today," said Dr. Jeffrey Segal, President, Medical Justice. "Our service plans not only offer wide-ranging protection, but also provide peace of mind, allowing doctors to focus on delivering the highest quality patient care."
An integrated Greenbook financial plan that includes the preventative infrastructure of Medical Justice may reduce the likelihood that a client doctor's assets would be inappropriately targeted by plaintiffs and their legal representatives. The program has been designed to dissuade and/or address frivolous suits as well as those of malicious intent. In the event of a lawsuit, Medical Justice executes a proven early intervention strategy, leverages an experienced team in court, pursues counterclaims against expert witnesses and pays to counter-sue proponents of frivolous cases.
Medical Justice is endorsed by the Medical Societies of Florida and New Jersey, State Neurosurgical Societies of Illinois and New York, Coalition and Center for Ethical Medical Testimony, among others.
