Retirement marks an exciting new chapter, offering opportunities to pursue personal passions or spend more time with family. However, it also brings significant changes to your financial and insurance needs. After years of serving patients and building a career, it’s time to start thinking about how your insurance coverage needs will shift. The benefits you've relied on through your employer might no longer be available once you step away from practice.

Life moves fast, and accidents can happen when you least expect them. While you can't control when or where an accident might occur, you can help control the financial impact it has on your family by ensuring they are protected in case of an unexpected event.

Your patients rely on you daily. But while caring for them, have you taken a moment to focus on another critical aspect of your practice that deserves immediate attention—your health insurance coverage? With premiums expected to rise significantly in 2025, locking in this year's rates could save you considerably over the next 12 months. This opportunity won't last long, so taking action now can protect you from the anticipated increases in 2025.

With October 15th fast approaching, the Medicare Annual Enrollment Period (AEP) will soon be here, running through December 7th. This period allows physicians and their families to reassess and fine-tune their healthcare coverage. Whether you're considering switching plans, adjusting your Medicare Part D Prescription Drug coverage, or enrolling in Medicare for the first time as you turn 65, now is the time to make decisions that will shape your health and finances for the years ahead.

As a physician, your income is the backbone of your lifestyle. Imagine dedicating your entire life to your medical specialty, only to face the uncertainty of an illness or injury that prevents you from working. If your income is not protected, even a temporary loss could have long-lasting financial consequences.

Physicians, like everyone else, are not immune to accidents – whether they occur around the house or in a vehicle. Unfortunately, if you’re found to be at fault in an accident, you could find your personal assets at risk.

This can happen because your home or auto insurance may have coverage limits you’re not aware of or forgot about. It could also happen if the injured party attempts to take advantage of your financial situation. As a physician you’re likely to be in a higher income bracket compared with the rest of the population – so you could be highly vulnerable to a lawsuit.

Either way, this is why many physicians help protect their personal assets with an umbrella insurance plan.
