The Virginia Board of Insurance Data Call for Medical Malpractice Liability Data Reporting
The State Corporation Commission’s Bureau of Insurance has posted the required data call templates and instructions for medical malpractice liability data reporting under Chapter 1015 of the 2026 Acts of Assembly (formerly Senate Bill 536), which is codified at Code of Virginia § 8.01‑581.15:1. These materials are available at: https://www.scc.virginia.gov/consumers/insurance/resources-ins-consumer/med-mal-data-reporting/
Entities required to report must download the appropriate template, complete all sections, and submit their responses for Calendar Year 2025 on or before October 1, 2026. Completed responses should be emailed to me at Rebekah.Allen@scc.virginia.gov. Please use the following subject lines to ensure proper routing:
- For insurance companies: “Medmal Data Call Response – Insurer”
- For self‑insured medical care facilities and health care providers: “Medmal Data Call Response – Self‑Insured”
As a reminder, the following entities are required to report:
- Insurers issuing medical malpractice liability insurance policies covering health care providers in the Commonwealth
- Medical care facilities (as defined in § 32.1-3) and health care providers that maintain self-insurance, captive insurance, risk retention arrangements, or other retained financial risk for medical malpractice liability
