Healthcare

The healthcare team at GAWS of London is committed to delivering innovative and sustainable solutions for clients as they navigate their risks in a sector that faces increasingly complex and multifaceted challenges.

Through global syndication and co-insurance, our focus is to reduce market volatility enabling clients to grow and deliver in the knowledge that their risks are managed effectively. We strive to provide creative, flexible and sophisticated insurance programmes.

The conditions for healthcare facilities are turbulent.

Trends such as a shift to value-based purchasing models, growing pressure on revenue cycles and changes in healthcare delivery have resulted in a challenging landscape. Coupled with this, sustained increases in frequency of severity of claims continue to influence market conditions, with rising medical costs, wage inflation and social inflation representing contributing factors in the rise of mega claims.

The healthcare team at GAWS of London strives to navigate these challenges alongside clients – advocating on their behalf to ensure strategic placement of risk into the marketplace. We connect risk to capital efficiently; underpinned by a deep understanding of clients’ risk profile and exposures.
