Why we chose Learna

At Medical Defense Society, we believe indemnity should give GPs more than cover. It should provide clarity, confidence and support for the way modern general practice is evolving.

That is why we have partnered with Learna.

Their breadth of postgraduate education reflects the reality of modern focused medicine, from family medicine and lifestyle medicine to women’s health, sexual health, metabolic medicine, leadership and other areas of developing clinical practice. Learna’s family medicine courses, for example, are positioned around prevention, mental health, cancer care, continuity and the wide scope of primary care.

For GPs who want to develop a portfolio career, strengthen a focused area of practice, or take the next step towards a more defined professional pathway, this partnership offers practical support towards recognised postgraduate study.

Indemnity that supports and protects

Modern general practice is no longer one size fits all. Many GPs are building careers around particular patient groups, clinical interests, extended roles or focused areas of medicine.

Medical Defense Society has built indemnity around that same principle: transparent, tailored support that gives GPs the confidence to practise without hesitation.

Our partnership with Learna extends that philosophy into education, helping members access structured postgraduate learning that supports their ambitions, their patients and their future practice.
