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 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.
