A person or an organization who specializes in particular skills and professes to exercise those skills in the affairs of others is bound to exercise the care and skill of ordinary competent practitioners in that profession. Failure to do so may result in liability claim or lawsuit alleging breach of professional duty. Professional Indemnity policy (PI) provides indemnity against such potential professional liability exposure. Our Principal Insurer offers PI to a wide range of professions such as lawyers, accountants, architects, engineers, surveyors, general medical practitioners, opticians, estate agents and etc.
As liability is intangible in nature, a professional proposer would have to choose the limit of indemnity (sum insured) as he deems appropriate and necessary.

This Booklet serves as a guide to the medical practitioners to meet the standard of care and professionalism set out by the Malaysian Medical Council. It contains the moral and professional obligations expected of the medical practitioners of this country.
It also serves to enhance public awareness of such standards expected from the doctor who treats them. Such awareness will hopefully encourage greater adherence by the doctors to these guidelines.
I therefore, urge all medical practitioners to adhere to these guidelines outlined in this booklet, at all times. Useful contributions from the medical fraternity may be incorporated in future revision of these guidelines.
