Compulsory Professional Indemnity Insurance

The Heath Care Liability Act 2001 provides that a person is not entitled to practise as a pharmacist unless the person is covered by professional indemnity insurance. The Pharmacy Board must not register a person as a pharmacist unless satisfied that the person will, while practising as a pharmacist, be covered by professional indemnity insurance. The Pharmacy Board may cancel the registration of a person as a pharmacist, or suspend a person from practising pharmacy, if the Board is satisfied that the person is not covered by professional indemnity insurance while the person is practising as a pharmacist. This requirement does not apply to, or in respect of, a pharmacist who is exempt under the regulations from the requirement to be covered by approved professional indemnity insurance.

Accordingly, the Pharmacy Board of New South Wales requires all pharmacists who apply for, or renew their registration as a pharmacist in New South Wales, to provide a declaration verifying their insurance coverage or details of any exemption. For pharmacists currently registered, the necessary forms will be included with your renewal notice.
