The Ministry of Health Holdings’ (MOHH) has introduced a new scheme for the provision of indemnity for public sector healthcare professionals. The introduction of the new scheme is with immediate effect, and members will migrate to the new provider as their current MPS membership expires.
Should any member working in the public healthcare sector wish to retain their individual membership with us, they would be welcome to do so; however this would be in addition to the MOHH arrangement.
If you do wish to continue your Medical Protection membership after your 2017 renewal date, you can do so in one of two ways:
