Can I get malpractice insurance cover for a clinical rotation in the United States?



I am a foreign medical graduate. Having finished my medical training I have been doing my graduate studies in health promotion and applying for residency training for a position that begins in June 07. I am curious if I can do a brief clinical training and also be provided malpractice insurance coverage for the same? I have done observerships in the past with attending physicians (with no or minimal hands on clinical involvement).
Is their a company which provides 'brief' insurance coverage to foreign trained physicians? I would appreciate insightful answers.

You should be covered through the practice that you're doing your residency through. Call their human resources department and talk to them about receiving the paperwork early. It might cost more than others, primarily because you're inexperienced, but also because you're foreign.

Good luck, insurance is crazy for doctors.
I am a medical student as well, however, I am only in my first year. If I am understanding your question correctly, you want to know if you need to purchase malpractice insurance for your residency that you are applying to in the US? From the way that I am understanding the learning process, if you are in affiliation with a hospital, as with a residency, the malpractice insurance will be covered by the hospital that you are affiliated with. You will not have to buy the coverage yourself. You will also receive a small stipend for the work that you do for them during your learning years as a new doctor. Good Luck! and congrats on getting through the first four years.
If you're observing prior to beginning your residency, you should have no clinical responsibilities and therefore no liablility. Once in your residency, they'll cover you.
