INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR RENEWAL
As a member-owned, not-for-profit organisation, we have an obligation to price responsibly; taking decisions that not only best support members’ needs today, but also provide them with peace of mind for the future.
Unfortunately, we are seeing year-on-year rises in the cost of providing support and assistance to our members across all areas of practice in Hong Kong. For example, the cost of assisting with claims and non-claims related cases has increased by 25% in the past year.
This increase in costs will have an impact on the membership subscriptions we must charge in 2018. We never like putting prices up; but we need to set membership subscriptions to reflect these increased costs.
Our approach is always one of sustainability
We have been supporting healthcare professionals in Hong Kong for over 60 years. This experience means we are better placed than any other provider in the medical indemnity field to understand the true price that needs to be charged in order to provide responsibly for the present and long-term future needs of members.
With fellow doctors at the core of our team, we know the problems that you face on a daily basis. We understand that healthcare is continually changing and is rarely straightforward; new challenges and issues constantly arise, some of which were inconceivable just a few years ago. You need an organisation that goes further than anyone to protect you and your interests today, and provides you with peace of mind for the future.

If you currently have an on-going regulatory case open with us, you can be reassured that we will continue to support you and provide you with the same high quality advice and support that you have always received from us.
If you receive a complaint or claim arising from an adverse clinical incident that occurred during your membership period but is only reported once it has ended, then you will still have the right to request the same high quality advice, protection and support that you have always received.
