Wellness and Social Subcommittee Committed to Connect

The Wellness and Social Subcommittee, established under the House Committee of the Academy, has been set up to devise plans and initiatives to enhance well-being of Fellows and specialist trainees, and to organise wellness and social activities that promote engagement, improve wellness, foster a sense of belonging to the Academy, and strengthen cohesion among Fellows and specialist trainees. Such initiatives and activities may include talks, workshops, social gatherings, sports events, recreational or cultural activities, and other initiatives that promote wellness and help prevent burnout in the medical profession, as well as any ad hoc projects deemed appropriate.

Medical Professional Indemnity (MPI) - an alternative solution 

Noting that the escalating premiums of professional liability insurance or unexpected changes to the coverage may increasingly becoming a burden / concern to some Fellows, the Academy has been looking for ways to ease the situation. In 2016, the Academy set up a Working Group on Professional Indemnity Insurance to help the Council look into the issue for Fellows’ interest. It is believed that introduction of alternative insurance products is important which could introduce fair competition in the market and hence our Fellows could benefit by having more choices in this medical professional indemnity matter. 

The Academy Council has recently agreed to allow Aon be an exclusive insurance broker to refer its Medical Professional Indemnity (MPI) product to our Fellows. Aon in return would make a contribution to support the Academy in organising risk management and related activities (e.g. organisation of medico-legal seminars and educational initiatives for patient safety). Despite this engagement with Aon, it does not imply any endorsement by the Academy on Aon’s product and it will be Fellows’ sole discretion to consider and choose the most appropriate product or service on their own.

For enquiries, please contact Ms. Jessica Liu at 2861 6534 or email to [email protected].

Disclaimer:
​​​​​​​The Academy only helps Fellows explore alternative insurance solutions as part of membership services. The engagement with Aon does not imply any endorsement by the Academy on Aon’s product and it will be Fellows’ sole discretion to consider and choose the most appropriate product or service on their own. Fellows should make all necessary assessments, consider seeking all necessary advice, and exercise their own judgement according to their own circumstances. The Academy shall not be responsible for any matters in relation to any product or service referred to or purchased/used by Fellows.

Yum Cha at the Academy

The Academy has continued to foster social wellbeing and a strong sense of belonging among Fellows by providing opportunities for meaningful social interaction, including Yum Cha gatherings to celebrate Mother’s Day and Father’s Day. Promotional updates for future yum cha gatherings will be announced to encourage participation.

Reciprocal Use of Leisure Facilities 

The well-being of Academy Fellows and specialist trainees remains a primary focus. The Academy has strengthened continued links with the Royal Society of Medicine, allowing reciprocal use of leisure facilities for Fellows and members, including lounge and accommodation as applicable.

Much has been accomplished since the inauguration of the Academy, and a great deal more is in progress or is being planned for the coming years. The Academy welcomes and will continue to consolidate international collaborative efforts in enhancing excellence in specialist medical education and practice through knowledge and expertise sharing leading to the best quality patient-centred care.
