Tailored membership for SAS doctors and specialty trainees
Legal protection offered by the NHS and your employer only goes so far. Where it stops is where Medical Protection begins.
Membership provides you with the right to request assistance for cases arising from a range of different situations. It also gives you support throughout GMC investigations and representation at hearings.
For doctors on a deanery-approved training scheme:
Prices shown are based on work completed exclusively within the NHS and exclude private or fee-paying work. Quotes can also be tailored for doctors working in other hospital roles. You can pay monthly or by direct debit.
We go further than state indemnity. What sets us apart is the range of benefits that can assist and protect you throughout your career, and help you practise more safely.
We’re providing block indemnity arrangements for selected medical specialty trainees from August 2021 on behalf of Health Education England (HEE).

Please allow around 20 minutes to complete your online quote. You can save your quote and return to complete your application at any time for up to 30 days.
If you have previously been a member, your membership number will also be required. If you cannot locate your membership number please call us on 0800 561 9000.
What you will need to complete your quote:
A full case history, also known as letter of good standing, will be required to support your application if you have held indemnity or insurance with any other providers in the last ten years (periods of state indemnity are not required). Please send us your case history from previous indemnifiers within 42 days of your application being accepted. If we do not receive this within 42 days, or if the information doesn’t match your application form, it could lead to your membership being cancelled.
Referred applications
Sometimes we need to check the information you have provided in your application (for example if you have had a claim in the past). This will mean that, at the end of your online application, you will be told that it has been referred. It can take up to five days for this to be investigated, but your application will still be progressing in the meantime and we will aim to get back to you sooner than that wherever possible.
