3 things to consider when starting a private medical practice


I want to start my own practice, what do I need to know about insurance?   Whether you are directly out your residency or breaking off from a hospital|private practice; the following will outline the insurance needs of a private practice into three simple categories [Personal Insurance, Business Insurance and Employee Benefits].

Personal Insurance: In college, I had a finance professor teach the concept of “pay yourself first.”  In order to run an effective practice, first make sure your personal house is in order.

  • Life Insurance
  • Disability Insurance
  • Property + Liability
    • Homeowners Policy
    • Personal Auto Policy
    • Umbrella Policy

Business Insurance: Properly protecting the assets of the business will ultimately protect your personal bank account.    

  • Medical Professional Liability
  • Businessowners policy [property + general liability]
    • Employment Practices Liability
    • Employee Benefits Liability
    • Crime Coverage
    • Workers Compensation
    • Umbrella
    • Business Auto
    • Privacy + Network Security [Cyber Liability]

Employee Benefits: How do I obtain + retain a best in class staff?

  • Health Insurance
