About Us

Strategic Alliances

North Carolina Medical Society

The North Carolina Medical Society (NCMS) began in 1849 when 25 physicians united to advance medical science and to raise the standards for their profession. Today, the NCMS is more than 11,000 strong and champions the same goals and ideals. As the largest physician organization in the state, the North Carolina Medical Society devotes itself to representing the interests of physicians and protecting the quality of patient care.

Physician leaders of the NCMS formed Medical Mutual in 1975 in response to the escalating medical liability crisis. More than three decades later, we are still the only liability carrier endorsed by the NCMS.

North Carolina Dental Society

The North Carolina Dental Society (NCDS) was founded in 1856. The primary objectives of the NCDS are to encourage the improvement of the oral health of the public, to promote the art and science of dentistry and encourage the maintenance of high standards of professional competence and practice, and to represent the interests of the members of the dental profession and the public which it serves.

Since 1988, Medical Security has been the only professional liability carrier endorsed by North Carolina's leading association of dentists.

NC Medical Society Employee Benefit Plan

The NCMS Plan, sponsored by the North Carolina Medical Society, offers group health, dental and life benefits to participating physician practices. Formed in 1998, the NCMS Plan has grown to provide benefits to physician practices in nearly every county of North Carolina.

MMIC Agency is the exclusive representative for the NCMS Plan, and provides customer service to participating physician practices.

North Carolina Medical Group Managers Association

The North Carolina Medical Group Managers Association (NCMGM) provides the professional administrator with a rich source of information and contacts for professional growth. Since their founding in 1971, they have grown to more than 800 members representing medical practices across North Carolina, from the mountains to the coast. Their membership includes small and large groups, medical school clinics, as well as prepaid organizations.

Medical Mutual is proud to be the exclusive Diamond Level sponsor of the NCMGM. Our partnership creates a unique opportunity to advance our shared goal of developing the leadership and management skills of North Carolina practice administrators.

Medical Mutual's exclusive Diamond sponsorship will allow us to reach practice managers through web-based educational programs. Our practice administrators can participate in these timely and topical "webinars" from their offices, just by logging on to the internet. We also look forward to providing traditional learning opportunities through guest lectures at the Spring and Fall meetings.

Of course, we will continue to partner with NCMGM on the existing programs, such as our sponsorship of the Administrator of the Year Award. We look forward to a long and healthy partnership between Medical Mutual and medical group managers across North Carolina.
