As the largest regional physician association in Missouri, the St. Louis Metropolitan Medical Society (SLMMS) promotes the greater-good of their nearly 2000 physician network. They serve as a resource to physicians as well as outside organizations and associations. SLMMS has named Missouri-based Keystone Mutual as an approved provider for medical professional liability insurance. As a SLMMS-approved med-mal carrier, Keystone Mutual has shown a steadfast dedication to its policyholders. With $36 Billion in reinsurance backing from Lloyd’s, and a one-on-one, direct relationship with doctors, Keystone policyholders have an insurer that listens and responds to their needs.

“We applaud the voice Keystone Mutual has given to St. Louis physicians,” explained Dr. Robert McMahon, President of SLMMS. “We trust Keystone to protect our members and provide them with sound risk management. We look forward to creating a sound working relationship between our organizations.”

SLMMS and Keystone Mutual will strengthen the voice of SLMMS-member physicians with the creation of a committee comprised of SLMMS-appointed members, to make product recommendations. SLMMS member-physicians will also receive a discounted rate from Keystone.

“2012 has been a very telling year for Missouri physicians,” said James R. Bowlin, Keystone’s Chief Executive Officer. “Changes in our industry have opened a window for reputable and trusted insurers to stand out. Keystone has worked diligently to protect Missouri physicians from Day One and we’re honored to form a relationship with the St. Louis Metropolitan Medical Society.”
