NAIC 2025 Market Share Report | Top 25 Medical Professional Liability Insurers
The National Association of Insurance Commissioners has issued its annual Market Share Data Reports for both the Property & Casualty Insurance Marketplace, as well as for the Life & Fraternal Insurance Marketplace. As in past iterations, the data offered here reflects a compiled list of market share data based upon filings of countrywide premium submitted to the NAIC from Property & Casualty insurers as reported on the State Page of the NAIC’s annual statement for insurers.
Once collected, the data is compiled into a report listing the cumulative market share data for the seven major lines of insurance in the United States: All lines; Private Passenger Personal Auto; Commercial Auto; Workers’ Compensation; Medical Professional Liability; Homeowners’ Multi-Peril; and Other Liability (excluding auto liability).
With approximately 97.92% of P&C insurers reporting, the industry recorded approximately $1.06 trillion in Direct Premiums Written in 2024. The top 10 P&C insurers account for 51.40% of the total market share, reflecting a continued concentration of market share among the largest carriers.
Private passenger auto insurance remains the dominant line of business, with $344.11 billion in direct premiums written, representing approximately 35% of all reported P&C premiums.
Key takeaways from this year’s Medical Professional Liability Market Share Report
The following are three key takeaways from this year’s market share reports courtesy of Chat GPT:
1. Berkshire Hathaway Dominates with Nearly 18% Market Share
Berkshire Hathaway Group led the sector with $2.2 billion in direct premiums written, representing 17.72% of the total market. Its dominant share is more than 70% higher than its closest competitor, the Doctors Company Group.
2. Market Share is Highly Concentrated Among Top Carriers
The top five groups alone account for over 44% of the total U.S. medical professional liability insurance market. This includes Berkshire Hathaway, Doctors Co, CNA, ProAssurance, and MAG Mutual.
3. Premium Growth Remains Concentrated Despite a Fragmented Tail
After the top 10 groups, market share drops below 2% per group. The 25th-ranked company, MICA Group, holds just 0.73% of market share, illustrating how competitive dynamics shift beyond the top tier and how smaller mutuals, RRGs, and specialty writers continue to operate in regional or niche spaces.
