APA Medical Director James H. Scully Jr., M.D., has announced that APA will continue its relationship with Professional Risk Management Services (PRMS) Inc. to offer APA members a comprehensive professional liability insurance program through The Psychiatrists' Program (The Program). Many thousands of psychiatrists have looked to The Program, which is managed by PRMS, for professional liability protection for over 20 years, said Scully.

The Program offers psychiatric-specific risk management, insurance, and litigation services. Program participants have access to numerous risk management services, including the toll-free Risk Management Consultation Service (RMCS) helpline, Online Education Center with multimedia tutorials, complimentary CME risk management seminars, a subscription to Rx for Risk, and more.

The policy includes coverage for forensic psychiatric services and administrative defense benefits. Discounts are available for part-time, child/adolescent, early career, and moonlighting members-in-training.
