About MPS
Our purpose is to protect and promote members’ professional interests, often in a changing environment
MPS was founded in 1892. It is a membership organisation of healthcare professionals, providing comprehensive professional indemnity and expert advice and assistance to more than 270,000 members in over 40 countries around the world.
- As a mutual, not-for-profit professional organisation, MPS is owned by – and accountable to – its members.
- Our purpose is to protect and promote members’ professional interests, often in a changing environment.
- We believe that patients who have experienced an adverse event are entitled to, and should receive, a full and open explanation.
- We also believe that patients who have been harmed through a member’s negligence should receive fair compensation.
- We are committed to supporting members throughout their careers, and strive to help them wherever possible.
- We offer risk management tools to reduce members’ exposure to risk, and so improve their patients’ safety and satisfaction.
