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.

$375 billion

and counting...

We’ve Shopped Billions of Dollars in Coverage.

Our team has worked with thousands of physicians to weigh their options for disability insurance around the United States. 

When you work with Physicians Thrive, we promise the best service for physicians.

See all your options.

Our experts present all the options—not just the ones we want you to choose—so the freedom to choose the best policy for you is always at your discretion. Plus, your insurance will follow wherever the job market takes you.

The best discounts.

When Physicians Thrive finds the lowest rate, you’ll know immediately so you can jump on exceptional insurance discounts.

Reliable coverage.

Our experts work with top disability insurance companies to get as many quotes as possible so our clients never have to shop around—simply choose the option that works for you.

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.

Our team has worked with physicians from the top resident and fellowship programs in the world

Group vs Individual Plans

Employer-provided plans won’t give you the coverage you need in if you become sick or injured. Discover the major differences in coverage between group plans and individual plans in the chart below.

Employer Provided Disability Insurance

Group

There is no guaranteed of coverage or policy renewal. Your employer can change your plan or cancel your coverage at any time

 

You don’t get to keep your coverage if you leave your current position

 

Any benefit received is taxed as ordinary income if provided by your employer

 

If you are working in any capacity your group plan will stop paying you

 

Own Occupation Disability Insurance

Individual

Policies from independent carriers are non-cancellable and guaranteed renewable which means the company cannot cancel or change your policy

 

You own your policy so it stays with you from job to job

Benefits are received completely tax-free

If you cannot do your primary duties your policy will pay you the full benefit. You will still have full freedom to work in any other capacity

 

Physicians Thrive Reviews

Great service, very comprehensive and supportive and quick

Jonathan Vecchiarelli M.
What an amazing business! I have nothing but good things to say about Justin Nabity and the staff. I worked with him for a second time (probably should’ve listened to his sound advice the first time :). However, he took me back in and guided me through the process of establishing myself with another practice that aligns with my future growth. He listened intently to my goals and really cares about achieving what is best for the client. I look forward to continuing our relationship in the future. Kudos to a great business. They’re also a B-corp and have a non-profit!!!

I reached out to several lawyers when I got an offer, but no one answered as fast as Physicians Thrive, who understood that I needed their help as soon as possible. They accommodated to my schedule, were very familiar with the review of a contract of a J1 waiver physician. They reviewed the contract thoroughly, took the time to explain me everything, answered all my questions and helped me negotiate important changes to the contract. I highly recommend them.

Working with Physicians Thrive has been a wonderful experience. We worked with Justin Nabity and Steven Stratman, who helped us navigate our first contract negotiations. Because of them, my husband and I have been able to find and negotiate terms for jobs that are a great fit for us. They are great people to have in your corner, especially when you are just coming out of training. I have already recommended Physicians Thrive to several of my co-fellows and former co-residents.

I worked with Dave Swan recently for disability insurance. Dave and his team were very professional and courteous. He took the time to explain to me the details about disability insurance and found the best prices for me. He was always available for questions and was overall a pleasure to work with. I will definitely recommend him to my friends and family in need for financial advice.

I currently do business with Physicians Thrive and they are by far one of the most stand up, do it right, integrity based organizations I've ever worked with. Their knowledge complimented by their unbeatable follow up is what makes them the best at what they do. Additionally I'm a HUGE fan of their mission to cure blindness... truly noble efforts on that from as well!

I am really pleased with this entire group. They work hard to keep you engaged and up to date with important aspects of financial stability that we often times put on the back burner given our very busy schedules. They are passionate about their job and they do not use a cookie cutter approach. Each individual or family is unique and they tailor your needs to your specific situation. I have been working with them for 7 years and they have always been very helpful and professional.

Justin Nabity of Physicians Thrive has been representing my family for over four years. We could not be happier with the service he provides for us and our financial peace of mind. From helping with my wife's contract negotiations and ensuring we have enough insurance coverage to establishing a living will and trust for our kids, Justin has been instrumental in guiding us through the process of protecting my family's financial future. Thank you, Justin!!!
