Member support:
PDL’s purpose is to protect and support Australia’s pharmacists by providing market-leading Professional Indemnity insurance, confidential incident support and expert risk management advice — ensuring confidence, security and peace of mind throughout every stage of their professional journey.
We have over 36,000 members across the pharmacy profession — including community, hospital, credentialed and research pharmacists, interns and students. As a 100% member-owned, not-for-profit organisation, we are committed to protecting and supporting pharmacists.
Established in Echuca, rural Victoria, PDL began by protecting pharmacists from incident liabilities and claims. Today, we uphold this legacy by providing unbiased, confidential support and tailored risk management services to safeguard pharmacists.
We provide comprehensive Professional Indemnity cover to individual pharmacists and designed to meet the evolving needs of members working across an ever-expanding range of pharmacy settings.
If you are a pharmacy student or intern, the PDL membership fee and insurance premium are both waived, so you can enjoy a complimentary membership with access to all member benefits.
Starting your pharmacy career can be challenging, so we provide a discounted rate for your first five years after obtaining general registration.
We offer comprehensive cover for individual pharmacists, designed to meet evolving member needs across diverse and expanding pharmacy practice settings.
If you’re a proprietor insured with Guild Insurance, PDL membership is included. Your individual cover means you only pay the insurance premium, not another membership fee.
PDL builds strong, collaborative partnerships with leading pharmacy organisations, insurers, and industry stakeholders to deliver tailored support, shared expertise and innovative solutions that enhance member protection and advance professional practice.

Excellent service above and beyond the call of duty.
The PDL and Meridian Lawyers representatives were exceptional in demonstrating empathy and care towards myself after I reported my notification. The service overall was exceptional.
Counseling on [the] phone was outstanding and made me feel at ease and confident in my actions going forward.
Always great service – fast and efficient.
Staff were extremely helpful and directed me according to my needs. Everything was explained with patience and empathy. I felt heard and supported. No judgement just great feedback and encouragement.
I have received industry specific, personalised, quality advice every time I have reached out to PDL. Thank you!
