Almost every professional knows how important it is to help protect their income. Our long term financial health depends on it.

For over 60 years we have worked with Texas physicians to help them protect their income and the financial security of their family.

But now, as risks to our health and livelihood are rising daily, we are finding that many physicians are reaching out to us with concerns that their income may not be adequately protected – leaving the financial security of their family vulnerable.

The COVID-19 outbreak has left many Texas physicians wondering if their insurance covers losses caused by the pandemic. Other TMA members have been contacting us seeking assistance with making changes and adjustments to their coverage. We at TMA Insurance Trust want you to know we’re here to support you during this difficult time.

If you are a Texas physician about to turn 65, or you are already enrolled in Medicare, you probably know 20% of your medical expenses aren’t covered, nor are most prescription medicines. That is where a Medicare Supplement plan and a Medicare Part D Prescription Drug plan can contribute – to help cover the costs that Medicare does not.

However, there are many Medicare Supplement and Medicare Part D choices on the market. The options available may seem overwhelming, and making the wrong choice can be costly.

Almost everyone is familiar with the value of life insurance. Most people, however, think of life insurance in terms of personal benefits – for the financial protection it can help provide for our loved ones.

But if you are an independent practice owner, life insurance can be a crucial part of your professional safety net. Your life insurance portfolio should not only provide enough insurance protection to comfortably provide for members of your family, but it should also help cover the needs of your practice.

As a physician, life insurance is a crucial part of your financial safety net. But many physicians may not have the coverage they really need for proper protection. True, they likely carry some life insurance. But upon closer examination, the coverage may not be adequate in amount, or in other ways. Let’s discuss some situations that may leave a physician without proper insurance protection, and how TMA Insurance Trust can help.

In the current public health environment, as a physician you undoubtedly agree that having quality health insurance is vital for yourself and your family. At TMA Insurance Trust, we are committed to helping Texas Physicians like you find the right health insurance coverage for your needs - whatever their situation. If you are a practice owner or manager looking for coverage for your practice staff, a physician looking for health insurance for yourself or your family, or a physician approaching or over the age of 65 and are thinking of Medicare options, we can help you choose the right coverage for your needs at the best price available.

If you were diagnosed with a critical illness, you know that decisions would have to be made with a high degree of urgency.

At that time, you would not be thinking about the financial implications of your condition. You would likely use all the resources at your command to establish a treatment plan for the best possible outcome.

But soon it would be clear that you could face a staggering amount of expenses – both medical and non-medical. That is when the value of critical illness insurance can be most appreciated.

You are your business.

That statement is true for any physician who owns their own practice.

Why? Because you are the backbone of your practice – which is literally your business. If you were ill or injured and couldn’t work, who would be responsible for keeping your practice up and running? You would, of course.

You are responsible not just to earn income for yourself and your family, but you must also be there for your patients as well as your staff.
