Frequently asked questions
The cost of your premiums will depend on a lot of factors, including:
- Annual income
- History of claims
- Level of coverage
For pharmacy owners, the cost of your insurance will also depend on the number of your employees and the type of property you own.
As a pharmacist, you are threatened with unique risks. Basic insurance coverage does not provide adequate protection for you when specific threats arise, such as when a patient files a lawsuit against you for incorrect advice regarding their medication. Pharmacist Insurance ensures you’re adequately protected in situations directly related to your line of work.
Your employer’s insurance coverage is designed to protect their business first and foremost. This means that they may not cover you in certain circumstances. For instance, if you volunteer as a pharmacist outside of your workplace or if a claim is filed against you after your employment has been terminated, your employer’s insurance won’t cover the costs of a claim held against you.
Furthermore, the policy limits of your employer depend on their needs as a business. It’s essential to carry your own coverage that is specifically tailored to meet your individual needs.
Employer’s Liability Insurance for pharmacists offers coverage for your legal liability as an employer when your employees make claims in respect of:
- Physical injury following an accident
- Occupational illness as a result of their employment
- Death
Our claims management team at Outrisk is here to help you through the many challenges of filing claims! We provide personal services with care and compassion, ensuring you’re fully informed and well equipped at each step of the process.
