INTRODUCTION

This April, in our Free SME Webinar we are going to discuss Medical Indemnity. We will be focusing on this essential aspect of practicing medicine in the UK, something every Junior Doctor will need to have in order be employed. We will analyse the different components of the Medical Indemnity, allowing students to better understand its function and how it applies to them.

Our guest speaker, Ms Rebecca Cameron, an official representative from the MDU (Medical Defence Union), will be addressing the following:

  • What is Medical Indemnity – Introduction to the concept on indemnity.
  • Importance – Purpose of the organisation and others alike.
  • Professional Boundaries – Importance and function of professionalism.
  • Case Study – An example of multiple jeopardy.
  • GMC Guidance – Understanding the rulebook.
