The experts, that experts rely on

As a member-owned, not-for-profit organisation, we are here to support your professional interests and protect your finances, career and reputation from legal claims and complaints.

We’ve protected members in Hong Kong for more than 60 years. You benefit from our extensive experience of dealing with clinical negligence claims, healthcare expertise and common medicolegal issues in Hong Kong.

We exist to protect you – members are the focus of everything we do. We don’t have shareholders to pay, so every decision we make is to benefit our membership.

You can request expert advice from our experienced, local advisers who understand the challenges you face.

Discretionary support that’s flexible

Our discretionary approach to providing assistance is not about being able to say no. It’s about asking ourselves, ‘How can we help?’

Discretion allows us to treat each case on its individual merit, providing flexibility for a wider range of situations, especially those with unforeseen or unusual circumstances.

Unlike some other organisations, discretion allows us to assess claims and complaints when new issues and risks arise in healthcare and consider where we can support you. Our response for members in the COVID-19 crisis is a clear demonstration of that flexibility.

Our experienced medicolegal consultants and legal specialists can use their judgement and expertise to help you, without being restricted by small print or exclusion clauses.

Handling complaints with confidence

A complaint can happen to any medical professional at any time.
