Professional Insurance. Professional liability insurance coverage for claims arising from care and treatment provided by Resident while acting in the course and scope of his/her/their residency program at the School of Medicine or other Tulane affiliated facilities ("Tulane") is a combination of coverages that include qualification of residents with the Louisiana Patient's Compensation Fund ("PCF") pursuant to La. R.S. 40:1231.1 et seq. (the Louisiana Medical Malpractice Act, the "Act"). Residents are enrolled with the PCF and are qualified health care providers entitled to the protections and benefits of the Act, including the limitation of liability. The Act's statutory scheme includes Tulane's coverage of residents by its Self-Insurance Program. Both of these coverages are occurrence based and provide legal defense and protection against claims or actions arising out of an event that occurred while the person was a resident acting on behalf of the School of Medicine in Louisiana, regardless of when the action is filed. Coverage with respect to State of Louisiana and/or Federal facilities have separate coverages from the School of Medicine's Program and additional information pertaining to such coverages can be found in Section 2, V in the Manual, if applicable. Tulane also secures excess coverage by commercial insurance policies that apply to claims arising when residents are rotating or acting in the course and scope of his/her/their residency on behalf of Tulane in other states than Louisiana. These excess insurance policies are claims made.
