Many types of insurance are there for unexpected events. Dental coverage works a little differently because its value often shows up in the habits it helps maintain over time. This is especially noticeable with routine dental care.
It’s the time of year when travel plans start coming together. Maybe it’s a long weekend with your spouse in the mountains, time with your kids or grandkids at the beach, or a trip abroad that you’ve been looking forward to. It’s time you’ve set aside for yourself and your loved ones, and the last thing you want is for something unexpected to get in the way.
For many physicians, insurance feels like just another line item on a budget. But what if your insurance could do more than just sit there? At TMA Insurance Trust, we believe that our purpose extends far beyond managing your policies. Founded by physicians, we understand the professional and personal realities and sacrifices of practicing medicine firsthand.
In life as we get older we gain knowledge and acquire more experience. As physicians, that can yield professional wisdom and provide greater confidence in how you proceed with your patients.
Most of us think of insurance in practical terms: you pay a premium, and if something happens, you file a claim. But what if it could do more for you? What if its value reached further than your own protection? What if it already was, and you just didn’t know it?
In your career, experience is everything, and years of practice and dedication have allowed you to make informed decisions for the care of your patients. However, when it comes to navigating Medicare decisions alone, the barrage of new information can be complex and confusing, leading to potential gaps in coverage—and costly mistakes.
When EverTravel became available as a new TMA member travel insurance benefit, Dr. Collins was quick to enroll.* Having one policy in place felt like a practical decision, eliminating the hassle of researching and purchasing coverage for each trip individually.
A physician’s career is built on knowledge, experience, and careful decision-making. But as you approach age 65, a different kind of decision is ahead—one that isn’t about patient care but about protecting your own health and finances.
If you plan to continue practicing beyond age 65, you’re not alone. Many physicians continue working because they love what they do, value the relationships they’ve built, or want to maintain a strong income. Others may be preparing for retirement, but whatever your plans, Medicare decisions and enrollment shouldn’t be delayed. Waiting too long or making the wrong choice could lead to costly penalties that last the rest of your life.
