About MPS

MPS around the world

Medicine is an increasingly mobile profession, with doctors travelling the world to work. Students often use the opportunity of their elective to experience medicine in a different country.

MPS is the world’s largest mutual medical protection organisation operating internationally. We have members in more than 40 countries, so if you decide to work overseas, membership can be arranged easily. It is one less thing to worry about.

The main jurisdictions where MPS operates are the UK, Ireland, South Africa, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, West Indies, Israel and Kenya. However, we do have smaller numbers of members in other countries, so it is often possible to continue your membership even if, for example, you are doing voluntary work overseas.

There are some countries where we do not offer permanent membership – particularly the USA and Canada.
