Dividend Announced for 2024

The Doctors Company is returning $14.7 million in premium dividends in 2024, bringing the total amount of dividends declared to $470 million.

Eligible members will receive a dividend on their policy renewals between July 1, 2024, and June 30, 2025. As in previous years, members must practice in a dividend-eligible state or belong to a select medical society to receive dividends.

Your renewal commissions are calculated on gross premium before dividends are applied.

Members in the states listed below are eligible to receive a member dividend of up to 10 percent. Members of the American Academy of Otolaryngology—Head and Neck Surgery and the American Society of Plastic Surgeons® may also receive a dividend.

Members of The Doctors Company will first be eligible for dividends three years after joining. The same three-year period applies to members added to groups.

Dividend distribution eligibility is based on practice location or participation in a qualifying medical specialty society:

  • If an insured is a member of a medical specialty society program, he or she will receive the medical specialty society dividend percentage.
  • If an insured practices in a qualified state, he or she will receive the state dividend percentage.
  • If both situations apply, the insured will receive the medical specialty society dividend percentage.
  • Otherwise, no dividend will be received.

Please note: Medical specialty society members in California will not receive a dividend, and accounts with negotiated profit-sharing arrangements are not eligible.
