CLAIMS-MADE PROTECTION

Having professional protection is essential. This means protection against the potentially harmful costs of litigation, as well as the other challenges you might face throughout your career.

Claims-made protection gives you access to all the benefits of Medical Protection membership – including expert medicolegal advice, support, and a whole range of risk prevention tools and techniques – along with the right to request assistance with claims for damages, costs or compensation arising from adverse clinical incidents.

When we take on a member’s case, we can take care of all the legal costs and damages or compensation payments up to a discretionary limit.

To help you understand more about claims-made protection we have provided some additional information for you, including a guide and video animation to explain how claims-made protection works and a series of Frequently Asked Questions to help answer some of the questions you may have.
