Disability Insurance
Income Protection is Essential – But How Much Insurance Do You Actually Need?
If You Think You're Fully Covered, Think Again
Many employed physicians assume their income is fully protected with their workplace benefits. This may not be the case. Employer-provided plans typically cover only 60% of your base salary. Your benefits may also have limits on the amount you can receive and for how long you can receive them.
Employer-paid disability payouts are taxed as income. Those taxes could significantly reduce your disability income just when you need it the most. To close the gaps in employer coverage, many physicians choose to get their own plan.
