The cover with Tego was more comprehensive than my existing insurer and I was pleasantly surprised to see some great savings on my premium. As a doctor passionate about patient safety and research, it’s great to see Tego support some of the projects we are running at the Northern Sydney Anaesthesia Research Institute (NSARI). Tego are attentive and treat me like an individual – not just a policy holder.
Dr. Benjamin Olesnicky Anaesthetist
I have found the legal advice – on a range of issues – given by Tego to be very useful. All interactions have been timely, friendly and have answered my questions fully.
Dr. Johnny Levy Medical Director, Primary Health Care Limited
I was extremely surprised by the confidence that I had in Tego after delving deeper into their offering. After considerable time spent researching Tego and comparing it against other insurers, I found that Tego had actually listened to what doctors had been saying for years. The coverage was fantastic. Everyone is cautious, and so was I. I spent time reviewing the policy and talking to other doctors and the feedback was consistently positive and reassuring. And when I realised that the pricing was extremely competitive, I was even happier. Quality first, price second. But why not have both? Thanks Tego, very happy with the time spent alleviating my concerns.
Dr Chien-Wen Liew Orthopaedic Surgeon & Director – OpAlert
I was very impressed with the way Tego’s underwriters assessed me on my individual merits. Once I compared the cover with my existing insurer, I realised that Tego was offering broader cover at a more competitive premium. It was an easy switch and I have been really happy with their service.
Dr Alina Zeldovich, Ophthalmologist & Co-Founder Beamers
Being a FRANZCOG doesn’t necessarily mean 100% of my billings comes from the high-risk practice of obstetrics; I work also in gynaecology and fertility, both of which represent a lower claims risk to me and my indemnity provider. Tego offered something no other provider did (and I asked all of them!): they tailored my indemnity policy to my actual practice. Not only was Tego’s policy equal to the best policies on the market in terms of cover and facilities, it was significantly more affordable; more importantly, it was reflective of my actual practice.
