What is Medical Malpractice Insurance?

Medical Malpractice Insurance (often referred to as Medical Indemnity insurance) protects healthcare professionals if a client alleges that a treatment, therapy, advice, or professional service caused them injury, harm, or loss.

In the UK, the cover you need depends on the wellness services you provide, your qualifications and the insurer’s policy wording.

Even where a claim is unfounded, the legal and regulatory costs of defending allegations can be significant. Medical Malpractice Insurance helps provide financial protection and access to specialist support when dealing with complaints, investigations and claims.
