How to renew your membership

You’ll receive your renewal pack one month before the end of your current membership year. You’ll then be asked to log in to your MyMPS account and:

  1. Check your information
  2. Update any details that have changed
  3. Renew your subscription
    • You can pay by credit or debit card, or set up a Direct Debit online at MyMPS or by calling us on 1800 932 916.
    • If you already pay by Direct Debit, your payment will be taken automatically.

It’s important to check your details, since any missing or inaccurate information could affect your right to request assistance, and in some circumstances your membership can be cancelled.

What does discretionary support mean for me?

Medical Protection has a discretionary approach to providing assistance. It is not about being able to say ‘no’, it’s about having the flexibility to ask, ‘How can we help?’. For more information on discretionary indemnity, read our Medical Director, Rob Hendry's, article here: What does discretionary indemnity mean for you?

Protecting you in Ireland and beyond

We offer protection globally. If you are considering moving internationally, please get in contact with us by emailing [email protected] to review whether indemnity with Medical Protection is available to you in your chosen country.
