Med Student Malpractice Coverage

Anybody know anything about how to find med student malpractice coverage, or how much it costs (roughly)? I know you're all gonna say the school covers you, but this is a special situation in which I must furnish my own individual coverage for one month.... I can't even seem to find what I need on the web.

Where are you?

In the UK most people either use MDU or MPS, though I'm not sure if you have to be a UK student to get cover through them.

Zevidah-

Email me at [email protected]. I am also looking for malpractice coverage, maybe we can help each other out. I am here in the US.

Best of luck!

Also, could the previous poster please provide the full names of the UK insurance companies?

Thanks!

MDU - Medical Defence Union

MPS - Medical Protection Society

There is also Medical Sickness in the UK, but they aren't so large.

I know the MDU has some sort of US branch - I think MDDUS, not sure what all that stands for though!
