About Avant
Avant is Australia’s leading medical defense organisation with a proud heritage of protecting Australian medical professionals for over 125 years. It was established by a small group of doctors in 1893, who wanted to “protect themselves from actions arising out of the practice of medicine”.

Building on this heritage, our vision is to be the most trusted professional partner in supporting doctors throughout their lives and careers.
