Welcome to SEMPRIS®

SEMPRIS is the Sports and Exercise Medicine Professional Indemnity Scheme – a comprehensive indemnity scheme for all doctors involved in the treatment and care of professional sportsmen and women.

In addition to standard medical defence organisation membership benefits (see SEMPRIS MEMBERSHIP – Benefits), SEMPRIS also provides the most comprehensive medico-legal support and indemnity available from any insurer or medical defence organisation in the UK.

SEMPRIS brings together a wealth of experience including medico-legal advisers, insurers and sports governing bodies, and has been developed to overcome the gaps in indemnity provided by the medical defence organisations for doctors involved in the treatment of professional sports persons.

Developed and administered by Health Partners Europe Ltd, a leading provider of Sports Medical Trusts, Consultancy and Medical Support Services to professional and elite level sport, Sport & Exercise Medicine is at the heart of our work. Health Partners was one of the first companies to develop and manage a healthcare trust when, in 1996 in conjunction with the Premier League, we launched “The FA Premier League Medical Care Scheme.” As Official Healthcare Advisers to the Premier League, the England & Wales Cricket Board and the Talented Athlete Scholarship Scheme (TASS), Health Partners' reputation with sports governing bodies, clubs, players, athletes, team doctors and specialists reflects our understanding and acknowledged expertise in this area.

SEMPRIS is available to all GMC registered members who treat professional sportsmen and women. It has been developed to cover all aspects of practice, not just sports related work, including non-sport related independent practice and professional issues not covered by NHS indemnity.

Further information about SEMPRIS membership, medico-legal advisory services, and the indemnity insurance policy is available on the website or by contacting us directly.

Testimonial

"The SEMPRIS policy addresses the inadequacies of my previous indemnity cover for the treatment of professional sports people. Not only is SEMPRIS part of a hugely professional organisation, but their premium is substantially lower than my previous insurers."
