MPL Association and Even Safer Announce Partnership to Help Reduce Clinical Risk, and Strengthen Claims Defensibility
New member benefit helps healthcare organizations identify vulnerabilities before they contribute to costly claims and litigation
(Rockville, MD, September 10, 2026)—The MPL Association and Even Safer today announced a strategic partnership to help healthcare organizations and their employed professionals prevent costly litigation before it happens by identifying potential gaps in clinical safety, documentation, communication, and risk mitigation best practices. As a result, members can now find vulnerabilities sooner, intervene earlier, and improve patient safety and claims outcomes, ultimately reducing exposure and cost of risk.
The Even Safer team partners with healthcare professionals, hospitals, and health systems to deliver tailored, data-driven strategies. These include:
1. Privileged Clinical Event and Claim Evaluation
Objective, timely expert reviews of adverse events, high‑risk claims, and lawsuits conducted by board‑certified clinicians across 20-plus medical and surgical subspecialties. All evaluations are performed under attorney–client privilege to support candid discussion and protected recommendations.
2. Quality Assurance and Enterprise Risk Mitigation
Comprehensive departmental and service‑line quality reviews evaluating policies, procedures, and clinical workflows against real‑world risk. In addition, independent external peer review assessing quality, safety, appropriateness of care, and adherence to evidence‑based best practices.
3. A Specialized Clinical Safety Platform
Specialty‑specific clinical risk assessment platform built for physicians and through real-time data provides actionable insights and highlights efforts that can be implemented immediately to improve performance, outcomes, patient satisfaction, engagement, and retention.
“We are excited to bring Even Safer to MPL Association member hospitals and health systems and invite them to engage our interdisciplinary team of more than 20 board-certified physicians across virtually every medical and surgical subspecialty, including nurses, risk consultants, and legal experts,” said Collin Keyser, CEO of Even Safer. “Decades of legal and industry expertise are combined to deliver customized solutions tailored to an organization’s unique challenges.”
MPL Association members receive discounted access to Even Safer’s comprehensive consultative services and solutions.
“The MPL Association is pleased to offer this affinity program to support our members in identifying and mitigating risks to reduce claims,” said Eric R. Anderson, President and CEO of the MPL Association. “We know the average severity of losses and size of indemnity payments continue to climb across nearly all medical specialties, so it is critical for insurers to have the best knowledge and tools to help prevent adverse events before they occur.”
