How much does cardiology malpractice insurance cost in Pennsylvania?

The typical mature, claims-made premium at $1M / $3M is $19,722 to $23,089 per year, 70% above the national median. This is a manual-rate benchmark before any account-specific credits or debits.

What is this figure based on?

It comes from Pennsylvania's filed carrier rate manuals (Pa. JUA primary + Mcare (statutory $1M/$3M), ProAssurance primary + Mcare, Positive Physicians Insurance Co. primary + Mcare (PA Manual eff. 4/1/2026), normalized to $1M/$3M mature claims-made. Cardiology is non-invasive cardiology (invasive/interventional is rated higher) in the manual.

Why is my quote different from this number?

Manual rates exclude schedule credits, debits, claims history, part-time status, and dividends. A broker comparing carriers can often land you below the benchmark — that is what the match below is for.
