3 IMPORTANT REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD CHOOSE QMA INSURANCE PLANS

  1. Fully endorsed and managed by the QMA
    The QMA represents physician members and looks after their interests. For over 40 years, the QMA has been working closely with its trusted partner, Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada, to ensure that the insurance solutions offered respond to members' needs and remain financially viable.
  2. Competitive
    The QMA insurance plans offer comprehensive and affordable coverage — comparable to or better than other products in the marketplace.
  3. Flexible
    The QMA's insurance plans are ideally suited to your evolving needs. Changes that affect you as a medical professional can be reflected in the insurance plans’ provisions through amendments to the plans. These amendments can be made to existing coverages, as well as new coverages.
