The MIIAA has been formed to:

• Act as the peak consultative group for the medical indemnity insurance sector in Australia.
• Provide a forum for the open exchange of ideas, information and views on issues of common interest for the medical indemnity industry.
• Be a point of contact for and to represent the MIIAA’s members, their insureds, and therefore the medical indemnity industry, in all matters involving contact with governments at all levels, community decision makers and the public.
• Be a point of contact to liaise and work from an industry perspective with key stakeholders such as the AMA, Colleges, APRA, ASIC, ACCC and other relevant authorities.
• Review, develop and promote appropriate industry standards and protocols.
• Through consultation with all member participants, represent the common voice of the medical indemnity industry on issues of key and/or urgent concern.
• Establish committees, as required, to review issues of urgent or industry concern, as identified by the MIIAA.
• Enhance the image of the industry through positive media relations.
