Life moves fast for small practice owners. Between the responsibilities of running your practice and your family commitments, each day can seem like it never has enough hours in it to get everything done.

So it’s a good bet that in your spare time – what little you have – you’re not poring over the latest iterations of health insurance regulations. Which means you may not be aware of special health insurance options available to you during the small group Special Enrollment Period (11/15 – 12/15, 2021).

When Open Enrollment begins, you will have access to special health insurance options that may help you secure better coverage for yourself and those in your practice. These options are the best kept secret in the insurance industry. TMA Insurance Trust is here to make sure you know, have access to, and can benefit from these limited time options. We’re also here to help in every step of the enrollment process. We diligently make sure you have the support and information you need to make informed decisions, and our goal is to make the process as easy and stress-free as possible.

There are never enough hours in a day. As a busy physician, you undoubtedly feel the truth of those words on a daily basis. The demands on your time--from patient care to family responsibilities--can leave you feeling like there are some tasks you just can’t seem to get to. That feeling can intensify as your career progresses and you experience changes in your life.

Wash the car. Clean out the attic. Sort through expenses for your income tax.

Have you ever found yourself procrastinating about doing certain tasks? It’s normal to put off some tasks – especially if they seem like they’re not on a pressing timetable. It’s what we all do to some extent or another.

But if you’re a younger physician, there’s one thing you may not want to put off – giving your family the security and protection of life insurance.

We’ve all heard the saying when it rains it pours. When something goes wrong, it can end up unleashing a storm of difficulties. Insurance was made for those rainy days and umbrella liability insurance was made for those times when a rainy day turns into a storm.
