What is the CMPA (Canadian Medical Protective Association)?
All trainees who whose work involves patient contact must obtain Canadian Medical Protective Association (CMPA) membership for the duration of their registration at the University of Toronto. The CMPA is a non-profit medical mutual defence organization that protects the professional integrity of doctors by providing services including legal defence, indemnification, risk management, educational programs and general advice. Detailed information, including a downloadable form, is available through the CMPA’s website at www.cmpa-acpm.ca. Membership cannot begin until the CPSO has issued your Certificate of Registration, but it is still possible to apply ahead of time and thereby speed the processing of your membership.
