How True Own Occupation Insurance Benefits You

You invested more than 15 years of your life and upwards of $100,000 to practice medicine as a Plastic Surgeon. Experts estimate that one in four medical specialists will experience a disability that threatens their career and standard of living.

According to Medscape, medical specialists need to invest between 2% and 6% of their annual income in disability insurance to be fully insured. Those who purchase stand-alone policies from their employer and later suffer an injury or illness discover that the coverage they thought they were getting isn’t enough.

Uninsured physicians discover they are ineligible for coverage altogether as insurance companies will consider their disability a pre-existing condition.

True Own Specialty Disability from InsuranceMD will replace your full income tax-free even if you choose a career in another field or decide to continue to practice medicine.

Don’t wait and don’t settle. Get coverage today.
