OLDWICK, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#insurance<\/a>--AM Best <\/b>has upgraded the Financial Strength Rating to A (Excellent) from A- (Excellent) and the Long-Term Issuer Credit Rating to \u201ca\u201d (Excellent) from \u201ca-\u201d (Excellent) of Healthcare Providers Insurance Company and its reinsured affiliate, HPIC Risk Retention Group. Both companies are domiciled in Charleston, SC, and are members of Healthcare Providers Insurance Group (HPIC). The outlook of these Credit Ratings (ratings) has been revised to stable from positive.<\/p><\/a><\/a>

\nThe ratings reflect HPIC\u2019s balance sheet strength, which AM Best assesses as very strong, as well as its strong operating performance, limited business profile and appropriate enterprise risk management.<\/p>

\nThe rating upgrades reflect HPIC\u2019s improved balance sheet strength fundamentals, driven by a stable investment portfolio that is driving consistent returns and consistently favorable reserve development. HPIC\u2019s balance sheet strength is supported by the strongest level of risk-adjusted capitalization, as measured by Best\u2019s Capital Adequacy Ratio (BCAR). HPIC has generated solid surplus growth despite significant capital returns to members.<\/p>

\nThe stable outlooks reflect AM Best's expectation that the group will maintain its balance sheet assessment in the very strong range over the intermediate term with strong operating results contributing to surplus growth.<\/p>
