Claims Made Basis

Policy cover is on a "claims made" basis, which means that our insurance policy pays those claims that occur and are filled while the policy is active and in force. Any claims made while your policy is active will be fully covered under our policy as long as they are made and reported after the retroactive date stated in the policy.

Benefits of Tail Coverage Insurance

Medical professionals retiring at the normal age of retirement (65 years) and who've been insured by our scheme for a continuous minimum period of 10 years before reaching 65 can benefit from Tail Coverage insurance, so that they can retire in peace knowing that MMI 4u has them covered. Run off cover is required once the policy has been cancelled. This is to cover any claims that may arise subsequent to the cancellation of the policy.

Exactly how much cover do I need?

You'll be hard pushed to find an insurance company who will advise you exactly how much cover you need, principally due to liability reasons. The responsibility to take out adequate cover largely falls in your hands, although our helpful advisors will be happy to discuss your options and explain how you can come to a conclusion regarding cost.

Sometimes you may also find that your job stipulates the amount you require. If you're looking for other options, you'll find that many industry organisations and professional bodies will likely be able to offer useful advice.

How much is indemnity insurance from MMI 4u?

Our policies start from just £45 per year and include the option to add additional Commercial Legal Protection.

Who needs medical malpractice insurance?

Any medical professional that deals with patients on a daily basis should get medical malpractice insurance. In our highly litigious society, a lawsuit by a disgruntled patient could cost you a fortune or even your career. So make sure that you have the right medical cover for your profession.

What are "claims made" policies?

MMI 4u normally provides an insurance policy on a "claims made" basis, which means that it responds to claims that are first made against you and notified to insurers during the period of the policy and the run‐off period.

What if I've been declined cover from the MDU?

We offer specialist policies for people who have been declined indemnity cover with their Medical Defence Union (MDU). Our simple online quote form will ask you questions regarding your previous insurance, once that's complete we'll do the hard work for you and help arrange cover - making sure you can concentrate on what matters most, your business.

What if I've had previous claims or disciplinary actions?

Just like with previously declined cover, we offer specialist policies for people who have had previous claims or disciplinary actions. We believe no matter what the scenario, everyone has the right to work and have a second chance.

What is "run-off" insurance coverage?

Run-off coverage protects you for a limited time even after you’ve left the medical field in case any claims are formulated against you by previous patients. In most situations, medical malpractice insurance ends when you exit the medical profession. Run-off coverage is used as a precautionary measure to provide you with extra peace of mind in the event a former action, event or patient alleges malpractice against you.

Do I need to purchase "run-off" cover?

If you have indemnity arrangements that are not an occurrence based product – for example, claims made products – you will require run-off cover, unless the terms of your cover specify any defined circumstances where this would not be required. If you are unsure of your current indemnity arrangements then you should contact your existing indemnity provider.

What happens if I retire or cease trading?

Run-off coverage protects you for a limited time even after you’ve left the medical field in case any claims are formulated against you by previous patients. In most situations, medical malpractice insurance ends when you exit the medical profession. Run-off coverage is used as a precautionary measure to provide you with extra peace of mind in the event a former action, event or patient alleges malpractice against you. Speak to one of our advisors for more details.

What is the Clinical Negligence Scheme for General Practice?

From 1st April 2019, NHS Resolution will be operating a new state-backed indemnity scheme for general practice in England called the Clinical Negligence Scheme for General Practice (CNSGP). For full information we recommend to check the Resolution NHS website directly at https://resolution.nhs.uk.

Is it possible to pay in instalments?

We offer the option to pay-monthly via direct debit if your policy is over 90, so you can spread the cost of your policy throughout the year.
