Brentwood, Tenn. (PRWEB) February 19, 2009 -- Sixteen QHR hospital clients received unexpected checks totaling nearly $4.4 million in February.

Particularly in these challenging times, it's important that hospitals have the financial security and underwriting capacity to participate in a hospital professional liability/general liability insurance plan

This program with Gallagher not only provides access to such a plan, it also allows our hospital clients to benefit when our group meets its risk management goals, sharing in any potential underwriting profits.

QHR recently renewed its contract with Arthur J. Gallagher Risk Management Services, the fourth largest insurance brokerage and risk management services firm worldwide. The company, a QHR service provider since 2002, provides hospital professional liability insurance, comprehensive general liability insurance, excess/umbrella liability insurance and employee benefits services to QHR hospital clients.
