Changes made to the scheme in September 2003 help to protect the interests of legitimate users and prevent the fraudulent use of MPS cards.

Doctors are aware that the fraudulent use of MPS cards disadvantage the people the scheme is designed to help, and will not sign the medical certificate unless you genuinely meet the requirements.
