Trainee Intern Indemnity Insurance

Resident Doctors (or RMOs) have long complained that where malpractice issues arise involving RMOs and Senior Doctors, the potential for a serious conflict of interest exists. In addition RMOs have been concerned about malpractice suits and disciplinary proceedings not being defended or being settled at the expense of the individual’s reputation.  Increasingly Trainee Interns are becoming part of the team and therefore, in addition to these factors, there is a need for indemnity insurance cover for Trainee Interns.

NZMII in conjunction with Professional Broker Services and NZRDA have developed a binding Professional Liability Insurance programme specifically for RMOs which ensures independent representation. The programme provides a comprehensive service enabling RMOs to have more control over events affecting their medical careers.  It is this programme that is available to Trainee Interns.
