Hi BBB! Im a IMG. IM yet to take step 1 in may 05. I have secured an observership/elective at a hospital at seattle. I NEED malpractice insurance for my period of observership there.The few companies i spoke to in seattle say they dont cover students.If you know of any company anywhere in the US which provides malpractice coverage to international students doing electives/observership ....please let me know ASAP. I need to send in my documents with the insurance note. Many thanks. saurabh.

I haven't answered because I don't know the answer. When students come from overseas for rotations, their medical schools pay for the cost of the insurance, provide the company, etc.

We don't accept observerships at my institution - I have no knowledge of any insurance company to recommend.

Sorry
