PHIL’S CORNER: Thank You
Phil’s Corner is a special monthly column from OAMIC’s President & CEO Phil Fraim.I started to write something regarding a different subject matter, but during this year when it seems like COVID-19 and many things have made it a difficult and trying time, it hit me how grateful I am for many things. With all the adversity and uncertainty, that may seem like an unusual attitude, even bordering on Pollyanna-ish. Yet, if we can step back and remember the [...]
One Less Thing to Worry About When Opening Your Practice
The thought of opening your own practice is thrilling – the prospect of being your own boss and building something all your own is no doubt one of the most exciting endeavors in any profession. However, it can be a little scary too, knowing you’re entirely responsible for every aspect of your livelihood. Ensuring you’ve filed all the proper forms and secured adequate office space can be daunting enough, but there are a lot of other details that can [...]
Statute of Limitations and the Oklahoma Governmental Tort Claims Act
Every year, it seems we have at least one claim that is the failure to provide timely notice under the Oklahoma Governmental Tort Claims Act, 51 O.S. §151 et seq. Usually, we see this problem in the context of a claim against a medical provider, such as an ambulance service or even a hospital. By the time plaintiff’s counsel finds out the defendant is considered a political subdivision under the Oklahoma Governmental Tort Claims Act, the statute of limitations [...]
What Our Policyholders Are Saying
Mr. Fraim and the inside counsel were cordial and efficient. My inquiries were answered promptly and the staff was very knowledgeable and straight forward.
OAMIC sticks by its insureds more than any other malpractice carrier I have heard of – and I experienced that commitment firsthand. That peace of mind is priceless. I will never leave OAMIC.
I am very satisfied with the handling of our claim. Communication was first rate. I thought the analysis and resolution of the claim was excellent. I received good counsel about the issues.
You guys are the best of the best. I could not have made it through this mess without your kind assistance.
I was with a big, national company that offered cheap rates and made a lot of promises. But, after a few months, I realized none of those promises held true. I switched back to OAMIC and am so glad I did. That was a mistake I will not make again!
I greatly appreciate the prompt and professional way OAMIC dealt with my claim. OAMIC made the situation as painless as such a situation could be.
Although I felt wronged, I was very anxious after my former client sued me. For me, I needed to move on, and the way you handled the claim allowed me to do so.
This was a difficult time for me and I lost many nights of sleep agonizing over error. OAMIC’s handling of the claim was superb, as was the work of outside counsel. Top notch. I was ‘in the loop’ at all times. Thanks so much for your excellent work. I am OAMIC for life.
I had a very frivolous lawsuit filed against me, and OAMIC and my attorney were fantastic. I have discouraged others from straying from OAMIC based on the handling of my claim.
