Professional Medical IncorporationUnder the Medical Act, 2005, a medical practitioner cannot provide his or her services by or through a corporation unless it is a professional medical corporation registered and licensed with the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Newfoundland and Labrador. A professional medical corporation must be incorporated under the Corporations Act of Newfoundland and Labrador and in accordance with the PMC regulations under the Medical Act, 2005.
Under a professional medical corporation, physicians have the same legal and ethical responsibilities to their patients. They remain personally liable for medical negligence and also remain accountable to the College for their conduct. The College recommends that physicians obtain and review the PMC application form, the notice of change form and the instructions from the College prior to incorporation of a PMC. Professional medical corporations must be renewed annually. Application forms and other documents on professional medical corporations are available from the College and on the College website.
