As the year draws to a close and you consider health insurance plans for 2024, we'd like to bring to your attention to some special options available through TMA Insurance Trust that may significantly enhance your coverage.
In the medical profession, your ability to care for your patients is closely tied to your health and well-being. If an illness or injury disrupted your ability to work, could you cover your living expenses and additional medical bills? Most young physicians, especially residents, face substantial education loan repayments, monthly rent or mortgage bills, auto expenses, and potentially, the responsibilities of starting or caring for a young family. If you were unable to practice and earn an income, even for a short period of time, these financial demands could quickly deplete your savings and leave you financially vulnerable.
Industry expansion in the 19th century was so swift that the concept and execution of safety regulations couldn’t keep up. The vast number of severe injuries and deaths that resulted led to the development of accidental death and dismemberment (AD&D) insurance.
You’ve invested years of rigorous study and tireless dedication to become proficient in your field. With your professional life on an upward trajectory, it’s essential to ensure that you are helping to protect the income you’re working so hard for.
The TMA Member Short Term Disability Insurance plan is an affordable financial tool that residents and young physicians can use to help protect their incomes if a serious illness or injury keeps them from practicing.
Physicians invest years in rigorous education and training, committing themselves to the welfare of their patients. However, amidst their relentless pursuit of healing, one aspect often gets overshadowed: their own well-being. This is where short-term disability insurance emerges as a crucial financial safeguard. By investing in short-term disability insurance, physicians can empower themselves with a safety net that can help provide vital income protection during unexpected health challenges or when planning for the future.
Most people know that insurance is there to help protect what’s important in our personal and professional lives. But as a woman physician what you might not know is that the pricing for certain kinds of insurance can be different for women than it is for men.
That’s because in many cases, premiums for insurance products are based on the gender of the person seeking coverage. And often, women bear higher costs because they represent greater risk to insurance companies.
As young physicians embark on their medical careers, it is essential to prioritize their financial well-being and future security. Short term disability insurance is a crucial safety net that can help provide financial support during periods of medical leave when you are unable to earn your regular salary.
We are proud to introduce the TMA Member Short Term Disability Plan, issued by The Prudential Insurance Company of America, as an affordable, guaranteed way for residents and young physicians to access vital income insurance protection.
When dealing with a health crisis, you may recommend that your patient get a second opinion or, depending on the situation, see a specialist. Take your own advice and get a second opinion about the group health insurance plan you choose for your practice. TMA Insurance Trust advisors specialize in helping physicians in Texas to find better group health insurance plans, get better service, and in some cases, even better rates.
