A few weeks ago, we turned the page on another calendar year. For many people, the start of a new year provides an opportunity to take stock of their lives and often involves a review of their finances.

When it comes to our financial health – and the well-being of our family – we believe it’s essential to include life insurance as part of that review.

Ask The Right Questions, Get The Right Coverage

Most physicians have some form of life insurance. But to provide your family with the financial security and protection they need, it’s important not only to have a plan, but to have the right amount of coverage. To help ensure your family has the financial protection you want for them, ask yourself these questions:

What Would Happen To My Family’s Finances If I Were No Longer Here?

It may be hard to think about what life would be like when we’re no longer here for our family. But it’s important to do just that – otherwise we could leave our loved ones in financial distress if we haven’t provided them with adequate protection.

Making a realistic assessment of your family’s future financial needs can help you decide how much life insurance coverage is appropriate. If you weren’t here to contribute ongoing financial support what would they need to pay the mortgage, the monthly bills and the rest of their living expenses? How would their lifestyle be maintained?

Your family may have other financial resources, but receiving a substantial benefit from a life insurance policy can go a long way toward easing their financial burden at a time when so many issues must be managed.

When Was The Last Time I Reviewed My Coverage?

If you do have a life insurance plan, it’s important to have a periodic review of your coverage. You may have purchased life insurance years ago, when you were younger. Many physicians get a plan early in their career, store the documents away, and subsequently forget about them.

If your family has grown since that time, or your income has increased significantly, you’ll likely need to provide a larger benefit than what your current coverage provides. You would not want to leave your family in a position where the coverage you purchased long ago does not provide the financial support you originally intended.
