Doctors sue medical insurers

Providing third party liability cover to France’s doctors now involves more than just the usual risks. Two doctors’ associations, Afirm (Alliance pour le Financement de la Retraire des Medecins) and UCCSF-Alliance, have sued two mutuals, Le Sou Medical and MACSF which co-insure medical TPL risks under the name of GAMM (Groupement des Assurances Mutuelles Medicales), for abusing their dominant position.
