Switching firms… should I be looking at buying malpractice tail coverage?

I'd suggest you consider it if your departing firm has a claims-made policy. I bought coverage years ago when I moved. You're insuring the gap after your prior firm drops you from coverage - which generally occurs upon your exit. Your new firm's policy only covers claims made for work you performed after you join. So if a claim is made for work you performed while at the old firm but that claim is asserted later, that's the gap that will be uninsured absent a tail.

If the new firm picks up your coverage you do not need tail.

At partner level plus moving a book? Most definitely unless P1 is correct.

P1 - I’m not sure that’s true. I’d confirm with a few brokers.

Has anyone been successful in negotiating the schedule on a global pregnancy bill? My provider won't bill by visit and split the global cost into four payments all due by the 28th week. I don't understand how that's legal since it is so off the calendar of services and crosses calendar years (and insurance coverage), where most costs are incurred at the end of pregnancy with increased visit frequency and delivery.
