Your skills and expertise are more than just part of your profession—they’re your greatest assets. They’ve shaped your career, supported your goals, and helped you build a strong financial foundation. But your ability to earn an income isn’t guaranteed. An illness or injury could unexpectedly take you away from your practice, creating uncertainty at a time when security matters most.
If an unexpected illness or injury disrupted your ability to work, would your finances be able to support you? Residents and young physicians are especially at risk because they are most likely facing financial obligations such as education loans, mortgage or rent payments, and auto payments, among other expenses.
You dedicate so much time to your career and responsibilities—have you considered how the life you’ve built will continue to support your family in the years ahead? The long hours and demands of being a physician often leave little time for reflection. It’s easy to delay these decisions or overlook the steps needed to help secure your family’s future.
How would you handle a diagnosis that changes everything? Critical illnesses often progress silently, catching you off guard and leaving little time to prepare. In those moments, wouldn’t knowing you have guaranteed financial support be reassuring? Life doesn’t offer guarantees, but the TMA Member Critical Illness Insurance plan does.
As a physician, you devote your life to caring for others—but when a serious illness disrupts your life, who will care for you? TMA Insurance Trust, created by physicians for physicians, understands the unique demands you face. That’s why we’re offering two guarantees to help ensure you have the protection you deserve:
A diagnosis you don’t plan for can turn your world upside down. It’s a reality faced by millions each year. In 2024 alone, two million new cancer cases were diagnosed nationwide,1 with 147,910 projected in Texas.2 Strokes, Alzheimer’s disease, and major organ failure are among the many life-altering conditions that take a devastating toll. In the United States, a heart attack occurs every 40 seconds.3
Most physicians would agree that health insurance is necessary coverage, but because of the expense, dental insurance may not be prioritized, especially if you are already maintaining a regular at home dental regimen, such as brushing and flossing. However, overlooking dental insurance can delay regular checkups and create a gap in safeguarding your overall health, potentially leading to more significant expenses in the future.
A sudden diagnosis of a serious illness can be life-altering, impacting your ability to work and provide for your loved ones. During these uncertain times, getting the care you need is essential but these costs can quickly add up, putting your financial security at risk. Even with your current health insurance plan, the cost of critical care may far exceed what your traditional health insurance will cover.
