Run off
Once you have paid your MDA National Insurance (MDANI) premium and DPL subscription, there is nothing more to pay if, during the year, any of the following situations occur:
- Permanent retirement
- Ceasing practice in/leaving Australia permanently
- Permanent inability to practice because of disablement or illness
- Death
- Maternity absence
- Extended leave of absence for postgraduate study
- Career breaks, eg, travelling, responsibilities as a carer, etc
For permanent retirement or cessation of practice, your policy can be endorsed to allow you to continue reporting claims that arise from your prior practice.
For temporary breaks in practice (3 months or more) you can renew your policy on a maternity or leave of absence category.
In any of these situations, if an additional premium is required, DPL will pay it on your behalf as an additional DPL membership benefit. The precise terms and limits of cover are set out in the product disclosure statement.
December 2011 qualifiers can take advantage of the DPL Early Bird Offer and pay nothing until 30 June 2013!
