CAFP Goes to Orlando!

Success. It’s what California’s finest physicians strive for... and what CAP can help you achieve. Since 1977, the Cooperative of American Physicians (CAP) has provided superior medical professional liability coverage and valuable risk and practice management programs to California’s finest physicians through its Mutual Protection Trust (MPT). As a physician-directed organization, we understand the realities of running a medical practice, and we are committed to supporting you with a range of valuable programs and services. These include a 24-hour adverse outcomes hotline, HR support, EHR consultation, a group purchasing program, and payment and reimbursement education and support, to name a few.

The 6 Most Common HIPAA Violations Revealed in CAP’s Free Guide. CAP’s new compliance guide, The 6 Most Common HIPAA

Violationss, not only explains how to avoid such mistakes, but cites the accompanying penalties for these common – yet easily avoidable – violations. With the right procedures in place, you can focus on practicing medicine and serving your patients instead of worrying about penalties.

For Your Protection. For Your Success.
