Health Care Risk Resources

From running operations and managing staff to meeting government regulations and, most importantly, providing high-quality patient care, health care providers have a lot to keep up with.

The Cincinnati Insurance Companies have teamed up with Pendulum, a well-regarded vendor of clinical risk management services, to offer our health care professional liability policyholders access to an online database of resources relevant to health care organizations, along with the ability to obtain clinical risk management consultation when needed.
