Governed
PDRMA is member owned and member controlled so we actively listen to our membership and deliver the coverage and resources they need. As you can see, our risk pool governance is structured to ensure our members are always in the driver’s seat.
Membership Assembly
This body holds the highest level of governance and each member has one vote for each coverage program they’re in - Health or Property/Casualty. The Membership Assembly elects the Board of Directors, adopts bylaws and amendments, and establishes PDRMA's contractual term.
Program Councils
Each coverage program – Health and Property/Casualty – is governed by its Program Council, and each participating member agency is represented by one representative. Each council determines the coverages, limits and deductibles PDRMA offers, as well as approves the annual budget, rates and member contributions.
Board of Directors
The Board of Directors provides the strategic vision for our pool. It approves and terminates coverage programs, selects PDRMA’s President/Chief Executive Officer, adopts PDRMA’s administrative budget, approves and removes members, resolves disputes and provides operational guidance to management.
