About this file

This document is a letter from Valleywise Health's Risk Management department, dated March 7, 2025, addressed to an Additional Insured Status Requester. The letter concerns the Maricopa County Special Health Care District, a public entity located in Arizona. Valleywise Health, through its Risk Management Operations Manager, is providing information about the district's risk management and insurance approach.

The letter explains that Maricopa County Special Health Care District has opted to retain risk rather than purchase traditional insurance, a strategy common among entities with substantial assets. The district has a self-insured/retained limit of $2,000,000 per occurrence for general liability and purchases additional traditional insurance beyond this limit. However, the letter explicitly states that Valleywise Health is not an insurance company and cannot extend "Additional Insured" status, as this is a right exclusively held by insurance companies. The document provides contact information for further inquiries, with the Risk Management Operations Manager available at 602-344-5672.
