The purpose of the Georgia pharmacy benefits manager bond is a financial guarantee which ensures your compliance with all rules, statutes, regulations, and amendments involved in your profession.
As stated under Rule 120-2-97-04, this surety bond specifically protects against acts of fraud, theft, or criminal malfeasance and the protection of all money coming into the possession of a licensed pharmacy benefits manager.
The bond’s existence allows those who can credibly demonstrate financial loss to file against the surety bond and recoup those losses. In no cases, however, will the bond pay out more than its total face amount.
As owner of the surety bond (the principal) you are ultimately financially responsible to reimburse the surety for any fees paid against your bond.
