Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This determination lists four specific Medical Defence Organisations (MDOs) that are not classified as 'participating MDOs' under the Medical Indemnity Act 2002.

What this means: Under the Act, MDOs could become 'participating' to access government support schemes (such as subsidies and run-off cover for retired doctors). This instrument specifically excludes the following organisations from that status:

Medical Defence Association of Western Australia (Incorporated)
Medical Indemnity Protection Society Limited
Medical Protection Society of Tasmania Inc.
Queensland Doctors Mutual Limited

Who is affected: Doctors insured by these four specific organisations, as they would not have access to the benefits and protections available under the government's medical indemnity support schemes.
