Jacksonville, FL -- (ReleaseWire) -- 06/03/2010 -- All surgeries, no matter how minor, have inherent risks. Everyone knows someone who has had a major surgical complication. The national news has covered the death of several public figures from variety of surgical procedures such as Senator John Murtha's death from complications from a routine gall bladder surgery. Up to this point, patients have not had the opportunity to purchase insurance against these risks. Surgical Risk Solutions has developed COMPLICATION INSURANCE®, a simple insurance solution to do just that.

After watching the trial of a surgeon who was sued after a patient died due to a blood clot (DVT) following a total knee replacement surgery, Andrew Kagan, CEO of Surgical Risk Solutions, felt there had to be a better option. "You had this catastrophic outcome leaving litigation as the only option available to the family. If the jury finds that a doctor fell within the standard of care, then no money is awarded," Mr. Kagan said, revealing that this was precisely what happened in the case he witnessed. "In addition, litigation in most areas may take from 2 to 5 years to reach a conclusion and if successful, the actual victims receive only around half of the damages awarded".

COMPLICATION INSURANCE® can provide up to $250,000 in coverage for as little as $100. The policy is underwritten by an already well known and licensed insurer that will verify claims quickly and remit payment.

The underwriting process for COMPLICATION INSURANCE® is simple, understandable, and can be completed in 10 minutes online. By visiting the website, www.complicationinsurance.com , answering a few underwriting questions, and paying for the policy with a credit card, the patient can get peace of mind in a matter of minutes. The website is also an informative resource to learn about the 70 plus procedures that COMPLICATION INSURANCE® covers.

COMPLICATION INSURANCE® is now available in California and Texas. It is also available in nine other states that include Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Delaware, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Washington.

Even though it is a difficult for doctors to discuss, most agree that it is in their own best interest to inform patients of all the ways to protect themselves and their families from the unintended consequences of surgery. This includes placing brochures in their offices in the various states that COMPLICATION INSURANCE® is available.

Surgical Risk Solutions, LLC Launches Revolutionary New Product COMPLICATION INSURANCE® Provides Financial Security for Surgical Patients

Jacksonville, FL -- (ReleaseWire) -- 02/03/2010 -- Surgical Risk Solutions, LLC announced today the introduction of a unique new insurance product designed to provide financial resources to surgical patients in the event that they have adverse outcomes following surgery. COMPLICATION INSURANCE® is a patent-pending insurance product that provides accidental death and dismemberment insurance to patients at a reasonable cost.

"Every surgery, no matter how minor, comes with risks. Fear of an unforeseen adverse outcome is every patient's concern," says Andrew Kagan, Chief Executive Officer of Surgical Risk Solutions (SRS). "What will happen to my family if my recovery is delayed or if I don't survive? What can I do to protect my family from financial problems if my medical expenses balloon? What if I am not around to provide for them? COMPLICATION INSURANCE® provides an easy and affordable way to assure that additional money is available to help offset unexpected costs. Most importantly, this policy pays whether or not there is medical error or fault involved in a covered accident. Having COMPLICATION INSURANCE® in place provides peace of mind for both the patient and his family

COMPLICATION INSURANCE® is a web based product and easy to access at www.complicationinsurance.com. The website also features educational information for over 70 surgical procedures, including cosmetic, eye and joint replacement surgery. For as little as $80, this unique product provides up to $200,000 worth of financial protection in case of death or other serious adverse outcomes such as brain damage or loss of use of an arm or a leg. Increased benefits are also available.

Kagan developed the concept for COMPLICATION INSURANCE® after he heard about a Florida man who died from a blood clot following a total joint replacement. The man's family filed a lawsuit but lost at trial after the jury ruled that the physician had done nothing wrong. "The family spent years fighting in court, and they lost everything. They were broke. It was nobody's fault that their loved one died," Kagan says. "I kept thinking that there should have been some kind of protection for that family."
COMPLICATION INSURANCE® is underwritten by QBE Insurance Corporation. QBE companies are rated "A" (Excellent) by A.M. Best and "A+" by Standard and Poor's (ratings based on QBE Group and QBE Companies combined). Availability, prices and benefit levels may vary by state.
