In summary, this article has reported on the experience of a mandatory physician loss prevention seminar that is sponsored by a professional liability company. The article includes only highlights of the seminar program; by no means is it a detailed report. Also, the literature cited in the references is hardly an exhaustive search. Implications for the development, implementation, and evaluation of a hospital-based seminar program were both implicitly and explicitly discussed, as were some of the seminar's limitations, both within the seminar and its evaluation. It is hoped this article will stimulate health care risk managers to either develop their own seminars or modify certain aspects of their existing seminars, both for their medical staff and hospital (employee) staff. Involvement in risk management/loss prevention seminars are both educational and challenging for the professional health care risk manager. They may also prevent claims, conserve the institution's financial resources, prevent patient injury, and improve the quality of patient care delivered.
