Insurance plan

In collaboration with Vézina assurances inc., GPIM offers its members a comprehensive range of insurance products at very competitive prices:

  • Product liability insurance
  • Product recall insurance
  • Extensive range of products and services
  • Protection of real and personal property and business interruption following a loss.
  • The full range of group insurance products

Bilateral meetings with DGPSA and DGORR

  • Over the years, GPIM has developed an exceptional relationship with Health Canada’s Therapeutic Products Directorate.
  • These meetings take place twice a year with TPD and enable members to make their representations and defend their interests with Health Canada.
  • We are also planning to set up similar arrangements with the Natural Health Products Directorate and the Regulatory Operations and Regions Branch in the near future.
  • Over the years, GPIM members have been instrumental in influencing and securing major changes to the regulations and their application, saving time, effort and money.

GPIM is a must in Quebec

  • Political, regulatory and drug shortage contexts are just some of the reasons to join GPIM.
  • Privileged access to TPD through bilateral meetings alone justifies the importance of being part of GPIM.
  • Law 28 of 2016, (ex p. l. 92) gives us hope that the market will be opened up, but we’ll have to be very insistent. With your support, we will.
  • GPIM is the only group capable of effectively defending the interests of Quebec’s pharmaceutical industry.

The members-only site will provide you with intervention and other documents.
