PEER2PEER

Peer support for physicians facing medical malpractice litigation

Background Image for Page Header

On average, a physician spends 10% of their career burdened by the weight of an open, unresolved malpractice claim.

Having to go through malpractice litigation can be enormously stressful and emotionally draining for physicians – and no one knows that better than a doctor who has experienced it firsthand. That’s why MagMutual created the Peer2Peer program.

We want to do everything we can to help you avoid the stress of legal action. In the event that it happens, though, Peer2Peer is available to guide you through it. This unique physician peer support program pairs you with a physician who has been through litigation and can provide you with insight, advice and reassurance to support you at every phase of the process.

How MagMutal’s Peer2Peer Program Helps

MagMutual’s Peer2Peer program is designed to support physicians navigating the emotional and professional challenges of a medical malpractice claim.

Through confidential, one-on-one peer support, Peer2Peer pairs you with a fellow physician who has personally experienced litigation and can offer guidance, empathy and reassurance.

Here’s how Peer2Peer medical malpractice litigation support helps physicians:
Emotional Support from Physicians Who Understand

Gain personal insight from someone who truly understands what you're facing. Peer supporters are MagMutual PolicyOwners who have gone through similar legal experiences and are able to provide compassionate, judgment-free support.

Confidential One-on-One Conversations

All Peer2Peer conversations are private and confidential. This allows physicians to speak openly about their concerns, stress and questions without fear of judgment or professional consequences.

Guidance Through Every Phase of Litigation

From the initial claim through depositions and court proceedings, your peer supporter can help you mentally and emotionally prepare for what’s ahead, providing practical tips and emotional reassurance based on firsthand experience.

Reduced Feelings of Isolation

Malpractice claims often lead to feelings of shame, anxiety, or isolation. Peer2Peer reminds physicians that they are not alone as many others may have been through similar challenges and have come out stronger.

Ready to Talk to Someone Who’s Been There?

Facing a malpractice claim can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to go through it alone. Through MagMutual’s Peer2Peer service, you can connect with a physician who understands what you’re experiencing and can offer confidential, empathetic support at every step.
