NORCAL Group 2014 Annual Report

2014 Annual Report
The Year of ______________

Our Mission
To provide our policyholders the highest quality
medical professional liability insurance products
and services at the lowest responsible cost,
while maintaining a financially sound company.
To anticipate and influence changing industry
and policyholder trends and respond to those
trends in a manner which allows NORCAL Mutual
to maintain its financial stability for the benefit
of the policyholders.

A Message from the Chair and the CEO
In Service of You, Our Policyholders
Over the years, the NORCAL Group of companies has seen many changes
in the practice of medicine and we have continually adapted to meet those
evolving needs—introducing new products, refining operations, improving
services, and now expanding to a national scale. Even as we continue our
evolution, our priorities are as clear today as they were at our founding.
We are a policyholder-focused company—there are no shareholders, no quarterly
earnings calls, and no analysts’ projections to meet. For NORCAL it has always
been and will always be about serving the best interests of you—our policyholders.
StAYIng Ahead to Better Serve You
The landscape of our healthcare system continues to change and become more complex.
From new healthcare laws and the rise of cybercrime to the persistent threats against tort
reform, the impacts to the practice of medicine are pervasive and unrelenting. NORCAL
works continuously to anticipate this dynamic environment by remaining at the forefront
of emerging issues and adapting to meet your changing needs.
For NORCAL it has always been and will always be about serving
the best interests of you—our policyholders.
In 2014, we introduced a versatile new policy to better protect your practice with
enhanced cyber liability and administrative defense coverage. We continued to be
a staunch advocate for physicians’ rights and tort reform, serving as the largest
contributor to the No On 46 coalition, to help defeat Proposition 46 in California
along with our 700-strong coalition partners.
We defend your community and we vigorously defend you. In 2014, 89% of claims
against our insureds were resolved without indemnity payments—one of the highest
rates in the industry.

List of All Currently Accredited CME Providers.
4 2014 NORCAL Group Annual Report

Our Risk Management services continued to be among the strongest in the industry. Our
continuing medical education (CME) participation is more than double that of the closest
competitor.* In 2014, we awarded over 35,470 CME certificates.
Strength and Stability to Better Protect You
Our ability to support and defend the critical issues that impact your practice can be
attributed to our years of stability, strength and solid financial position. We are proud that
we were again affirmed with an “A” (Excellent) rating by A.M. Best, a rating NORCAL Mutual
has held for more than 30 years. In 2014, we returned more than $14 million in dividends to
our members due to their practice of good medicine and the sound business practices
of the NORCAL Group of companies. To date, more than $500 million in dividends have
been declared and paid.
We are building on the strength of our foundation and growing and changing for you,
moving from three regional companies to one national medical professional liability
insurance (MPLI) company that is large enough and agile enough to serve the complex and
varied needs of our policyholders. From the solo practitioner to the large multi-specialty
group, we are committed to you every day, and are unwavering when you need us most.
We are proud that you have put your trust in us and we look forward to another great
year together.
Thank you very much for your business and your confidence in our company.

The year of ___________________________
Arl Van Moore, Jr., MD | Chairman and CEO of Strategic Radiology | Charlotte, NC
“Strategic Radiology is always looking at innovative ways to approach our business
needs. NORCAL Mutual understands the complete requisite of our members. The
NORCAL team crafted a progressive program that brings significant benefits at
a group level, but also enough flexibility to address the needs of our individual
member groups.”
6 2014 NORCAL Group Annual Report

2014 — The Year of You
Building a Better COMPAny for You
We are changing because the needs of our members are changing.
The complex and varied requirements for physicians, medical groups,
and facilities are driving the need for flexible coverage options that
meet the unique demands of each practice. Our strategic integration
and expansion addresses these varied needs with the introduction of
a versatile new policy, as well as improvements to our service model
to further enhance our customers’ experience.
Our national expansion continued throughout the year with the addition of more states
to the NORCAL Mutual coverage area. We also introduced a new policy that offers greater
flexibility and increased coverage of cyber liability and administrative defense. In 2014,
NORCAL began writing business in Illinois, Kansas, Missouri, Nevada and Texas, all states
that were previously written by our subsidiary Medicus Insurance Company. Additionally,
Delaware and Pennsylvania insureds were transitioned from PMSLIC Insurance Company
to NORCAL Mutual in the second half of the year.
We are changing because the needs of our policyholders are changing.
Underpinning our expansion was the continued integration of our operations for greater
efficiencies and continued service enhancements. A dedicated product development
team was established to focus on new coverage offerings; our underwriting and operations
processes were further streamlined; a national policyholder services strategy was
implemented to provide extended support; and a mobile app to access risk management
and CME benefits is under development to launch in early 2015.
2014 NORCAL Group Annual Report 7

2014 — The Year of You
A COMPAny as Diverse as You
Diversity remains a strategic advantage for us. Our physician-led board of directors is
one of the most diverse in the industry, ensuring a wider perspective on matters that
are important to you. Across our company, we cultivate an environment that embraces
diversity of thought, cultural experiences and individual differences. This is essential to
better understand the wide-ranging perspectives of a growing policyholder base that
may differ in geography, size, specialty or needs.
Through our Supplier Diversity program we are committed to pursuing business
relationships with enterprises owned by individuals of diverse backgrounds. Those
enterprises include women-, LGBT-, veteran-, disabled veteran- and minority-owned
businesses that share our commitment to delivering outstanding value to our customers.
Our physician-led board of directors is one of the most diverse
in the industry, ensuring a wider perspective on matters that are
important to you.
National Experience with Local Attention
Even as we broaden our reach as a national organization, we are committed to honoring
our roots of localized attention and service. NORCAL Group now includes multiple offices
in every major U.S. time zone to best serve your needs.
Our local expertise also extends to the strong partnerships with our national network
of local agent/brokers. Our partners continue to be a trusted source of information
and support for our policyholders and for NORCAL.

Carol Davis | Practice Administrator, Creekside Medical | Vancouver, WA
“Clarity and openness were big selling points for moving to Medicus. Everyone has
been readily available and responsive. We get prompt, thorough service from any
department, and that is so important. The risk management service in particular
is excellent. This is exactly what we needed from our provider.”
2014 NORCAL Group Annual Report 9

A Note from Our CFO
In 2014, the healthcare sector continued to transform and change, and we
are proud that the financial condition of NORCAL Mutual and its subsidiary
companies has remained consistently strong throughout. Policyholder
counts and renewal retention rates have both trended favorably as we
have begun to transition PMSLIC and Medicus policyholders onto NORCAL
Mutual paper. NORCAL Group’s “A” (Excellent) rating and stable outlook
was again affirmed by A.M. Best for the 31 st consecutive year.
We are very pleased to maintain a healthy policyholder surplus of
$642 million, which has been consistent over the past several years.
NORCAL experienced solid claim results, and written premium grew even as the competitive
environment endured. The growth of our Excess & Surplus (E&S) line also helped contribute
to our success in 2014. We are very pleased to maintain a healthy policyholder surplus of
$642 million, which has been consistent over the past several years.
We remain confident and optimistic about the future and our ability to protect our
policyholders for years to come.

NORCAL Group Consolidated Financial Results
The growth of the NORCAL Group, which includes NORCAL Mutual,
Medicus and PMSLIC, has led to a better diversified MPLI option to
protect physicians throughout the country. At year’s end, NORCAL Group
represented $295 million of MPLI premium across the nation, making
NORCAL Mutual one of the largest mutual carriers.
We are well capitalized with $1.56 billion in assets and have conservatively
retained more than $642 million in policyholders’ surplus, ensuring the
ability to protect our policyholders for many years to come. In 2014, we
declared more than $14 million in dividends to eligible NORCAL Mutual

“We greatly appreciated all of the efforts and support from the beginning and in the
updates, preparation, and daily support during trial. We never felt alone. NORCAL
supported us during our darkest moments when we were losing faith. It was an
emotional week and we were very glad they were there every step of the way. We felt
that they went above and beyond, and we greatly appreciate everything they did for us.”

“ the policyholder services and risk management teams always know exactly what I need.
Claims Rx has been a big plus, a good way of learning via real-time claims. I even share it with
the medical students who rotate with me. I attended a CME event that focused on treatment
methods practiced by other cultures and how I could apply them to my practice. I thought that
was so interesting. That educational diversity is very important to me.”
