Risk Management and Insurance Planning for Physicians and Advisors is an essential book for physicians because it explains to both physicians and insurance professionals the background, theory, and practicalities of medical risk management and insurance planning.  

For practicing physicians, selecting a knowledgeable insurance advisor and developing a comprehensive personal and corporate risk management plan can be a daunting task. The insurance haze is lifted by this editor and his team of contributing authors.

As a consequence of today’s litigious environment in the healthcare industry, physicians must now carefully assess their personal and practice risks as they seek to be indemnified should an event or cause of action occur. This process requires integrated knowledge of the healthcare industrial complex, as well as the rapidly changing insurance industry.

Risk Management and Insurance Planning for Physicians and Advisors fulfills its promise as a peerless tool for physicians wanting to make good decisions about the risks they face. 

It is also ideal for financial planners, insurance agents and healthcare business advisors wishing to re-educate and help doctors by adding lasting value to their client relationships. With time at a premium for all, and so much information packed into one well-organized resource, this book should be on the desk of every physician, or financial advisor serving the healthcare space.

Simply stated, if you read this compelling text with a mind focused on the future, the time you spend will be amply rewarded. Contributed articles include:

"This book is an excellent primer for physicians of all levels and interests providing important personal and professional advice. It is “must reading” for all medical students who need a fundamental understanding of the current healthcare environment and is equally important to the established physician executive looking for a reference on topics like capitation or the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)." -- David C. Stockwell, MD and Anthony D. Slonim, MD, MPH, American College of Physician Executives
