Locum Tenens coverage is designed to provide coverage for substitute physicians working in your place on a temporary basis due to your vacation, illness or other absence from your usual practice, but only if your contract with the temporary substitute physician specifies that you will provide insurance coverage.
Your medical malpractice policy with MAG Mutual provides automatic shared-limit coverage for up to 60 days for temporary substitute locum tenens physicians. If your specific needs require more than 60 days, please contact one of our customer service representatives for additional coverage.

The cost for an extended reporting endorsement or "tail" coverage is dependent upon such factors as the amount of time you have been insured on your current policy, your medical specialty and liability limits. The premium typically can range anywhere between 1.5 to 3 times your current policy premium.
