Here is how membership in BAMP can benefit you!

• Collective bargaining

As a trade union, BAMP can ensure that the voice of the medical profession is heard in Barbados. Our profession is by its very nature time consuming and potentially stressful. As a member of BAMP, you can rest assured that your professional interests are being looked after. Policy, conditions of employment and service are all areas that fall under the auspices of the organization.

•  Life/Medical insurance

Through the association, members have access to one of the most important tools of this profession, affordable insurance. Sagicor General Insurance a well-known, highly-rated insurance company across the Caribbean has developed a very attractive package for BAMP members. They offer substantial discounts on what can be one of the most costly aspects of operating a medical practice.

•  Indemnity and malpractice insurance

This is not currently available in Barbados. Through the Medical Protection Society in England, BAMP members are able to access affordable insurance. A fee structure and an application form are available at BAMP's office or available for download on this site (MAKE THIS HAPPEN-check MPS site). BAMP members get a 10% discount for MPS fees.
