In the United States, Markel has provided tailored medical professional-liability solutions to healthcare professionals for more than 35 years.

Who Is Markel in Healthcare and Senior-Care Risk?
Markel’s medical professional-liability coverage (medical malpractice) is designed for physicians and healthcare professionals, protecting against bodily-injury claims alleging negligence in the provision of healthcare services.
Markel Care, available in certain markets, offers a packaged solution for organizations providing services, care, education, and support to people with additional needs or vulnerabilities, with coverages spanning general, abuse, professional, and management liability, as well as property, business interruption, crime, and legal expenses. This structure is relevant for organizations serving seniors and others in care settings.
Why Senior-Care Ecosystems Need Markel
Senior-care ecosystems rely on Markel when:
Clinicians and organizations need tailored medical professional-liability coverage.
Care organisations serving vulnerable populations, including seniors, require packaged liability and property solutions.
They value a specialty carrier with strong care-sector expertise.
That makes standardized clinical-incident and organisational-risk data vital for Markel’s underwriting and risk-management support.
Case Study
A nonprofit care organisation provides residential and day services to older adults and adults with disabilities, and uses a Markel Care-style package. Markel requests loss histories for injury, abuse, and property claims, along with details on governance and risk-management. The organisation implements Caring Data to record incidents in categories aligned with abuse, professional, and premises exposures. Markel uses the resulting reports to tailor limits, recommend risk-management steps, and support stable capacity for the care-organisation portfolio.
