Evaluating the Knowledge and Awareness of Professional Indemnity Insurance among Medical Doctors in Nigeria.
To address this, the integration of medico-legal modules into medical training, as implemented in South Africa, would enhance knowledge among newly qualified doctors. Targeted education interventions, such as workshops and continuing medical education courses in diverse practice settings, would be required to bridge the gap. This would empower Nigerian doctors with the knowledge needed to access PII and hence better protect themselves and patients.
