Physician Disability Insurance
As you start your career, quality disability insurance is the key to keeping your finances secure in the event of accident, injury, or medical emergency.
The largest discounts are available to residents & fellows
The top insurance companies provide discounts for training physicians and they last for the life of the policy -not just until graduation. There are not a lot of chances to score discounts on true own-occupation disability insurance, so taking advantage of these discounts is a must.

Now is the best time to buy disability insurance
You’re in your prime.
Disability insurance rates are based on your age and health so applying sooner than later can help you save. Each year you wait to apply you will pay between 5-7% more for the same coverage.
Your coverage will move with you.
Most new physicians switch employers multiple times within their first few years of training. With an individual disability insurance policy, you have coverage that remains the same from job to job without any extra work on your end.
We work with physicians at over 400 medical centers
Our team has worked with physicians from the top resident and fellowship programs in the world
