The provision of insurance is highly regulated, and for medical indemnity insurance this level of regulation creates new challenges for providers who previously offered non regulated discretionary indemnity cover and were governed predominantly by medical practitioners.

In December 2005 it was resolved by the Board to restructure the MIIAA Committees.  This has resulted in the Insurance and Technical Committees combining.

The Terms of Reference of the Committee are being finalised during January 2006, and a revised outline of the responsibilities of this new committee will be published in February 2006.
