Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	Commitments and Contingencies ProAssurance is involved in various legal actions related to insurance policies and claims handling including, but not limited to, claims asserted by policyholders. These types of legal actions arise in the Company's ordinary course of business and, in accordance with GAAP for insurance entities, are considered as a part of the Company's loss reserving process, which is described in detail under the heading "Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses" in the Accounting Policies section in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in ProAssurance's December 31, 2022 report on Form 10-K. ProAssurance also has other direct actions against the Company unrelated to its claims activity which are evaluated and accounted for as a part of other liabilities. For these corporate legal actions, the Company evaluates each case separately and establishes what it believes is an appropriate reserve based on GAAP guidance related to contingent liabilities. As of September 30, 2023, there were no material reserves established for corporate legal actions. As a member of Lloyd's, ProAssurance has obligations to Syndicate 1729 including FAL requirements. ProAssurance provides FAL to support underwriting by Syndicate 1729 which is comprised of investment securities, primarily available-for-sale fixed maturities, deposited with Lloyd's with a total fair value of approximately $19.6 million at September 30, 2023 (see Note 3). During the second quarter of 2023, the Company received a return of approximately $4.1 million of cash from its FAL balances related to the settlement of its participation in the results of Syndicate 1729 and Syndicate 6131 for the 2020 underwriting year. ProAssurance has entered into financial instrument transactions that may present off-balance sheet credit risk or market risk. These transactions include a short-term loan commitment and commitments to provide funding to non-public investment entities. Under the short-term loan commitment, ProAssurance has agreed to advance funds on a 30 day basis to a counterparty provided there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. As of September 30, 2023, ProAssurance had total funding commitments related to non-public investment entities as well as the short-term loan commitment of approximately $146.6 million which included the amount at risk if the full short-term loan is extended and the counterparties default. However, the credit risk associated with the short-term loan commitment is minimal as the counterparties to the contract are highly rated commercial institutions and to-date have been performing in accordance with their contractual obligations. As such, ProAssurance’s expected credit losses associated with this short-term loan commitment were nominal in amount as of September 30, 2023. ProAssurance entered into a services agreement with a company to provide data analytics services for certain product lines within the Company's HCPL book of business. Under the services agreement, the Company has committed to an annual fee of approximately $3.5 million for three years. In addition, the services agreement contains an annual one-year auto-extension feature, in November, unless either party elects to non-renew the services agreement by providing notice at least six-months prior to the end of the contract. ProAssurance incurred operating expenses associated with this services agreement of $0.8 million and $2.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to $0.9 million and $2.7 million for the same respective periods of 2022. As of September 30, 2023, the remaining commitment under this agreement was estimated to be approximately $3.8 million. The purchase consideration in the NORCAL acquisition included contingent consideration. NORCAL policyholders who elected to receive NORCAL stock and tender it to ProAssurance are eligible for a share of contingent consideration in an amount of up to approximately $84 million depending upon the after-tax development of NORCAL's ultimate net losses between December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2023. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the contingent consideration liability was $9.5 million and $15.0 million, respectively, carried at fair value utilizing a stochastic model (see Note 2). This estimate does not guarantee that contingent consideration will ultimately be paid. Depending on NORCAL's actual ultimate net loss development between December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2023, the actual amount due to eligible policyholders may be greater than or less than the $9.5 million current fair value estimate. See further discussion around the contingent consideration and the NORCAL acquisition in Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in ProAssurance's December 31, 2022 report on Form 10-K.
