Professional Indemnity Insurance

The Singapore Nurses Association (SNA) has successfully negotiated for a group professional indemnity insurance policy with NTUC Income Insurance Cooperative Limited. The policy has an annual aggregate of S$2,000,000 and any one occurrence of S$50,000 per named insured. The insurance covers all legal costs, fees and expenses. This policy is open to members only. The annual premium is S$107 per member insured.

Being sued for malpractice is one of the most traumatic experiences a nurse can have. Regardless of one’s guilt or innocence, receiving notification of being sued and the events that follow are not only traumatic but time consuming and expensive. Malpractice insurance, competent legal counsel and knowledge of what to expect at each step along the way can assist the nurse in dealing with this very difficult situation.

This is a small price to pay to ensure you get to sleep well even if something unforeseen does happen. Application forms are available at SNA House, 77 Maude Road, Singapore 208353. If you are interested to be insured under this policy, please give us a call at 63920770 to request for a form or download professional indemnity form.
