Physicians Insurance President, Thomas Bryant, ARM, with Baystate Financial MD Provides Expert Advice on NEJM Resident360 Panel

Beginning this Wednesday, Sep 22nd through Oct 1st, Tom Bryant, along with Claire Williams from Baystate Financial MD, will be providing financial and insurance advice to residents at NEJM360’s Financial Planning 101.

Designed specifically for residents, NEJM Resident 360 provides information, resources, and support for residents. It was created to help build knowledge and as a career advancement tool by connecting residents with a supportive community of fellow residents as well as experts for clinical and professional insight. NEJM Group editorial staff, fellows, and specialists curate the most trustworthy and important content from NEJM Group and other respected journals.

This topic is important as an estimated 73% of medical students graduate with debt. The average cost of attending medical school is upwards of $250,000, and the average medical student graduates with debt approaching $200,000. Although physicians are still some of the highest paid professionals in the country, residency may imperil a sense of financial security resulting from loan repayment, cost of living, and other expenses. Join our team of financial advisors with experience in issues pertinent to the training and practicing physician. The panel will discuss questions such as:

  • How should I manage my loans?
  • What are my repayment options?
  • What’s a 401K or IRA? When should I start saving for retirement?
  • When do I need life insurance or disability insurance? What’s an umbrella policy?

All are welcome to tune into this asynchronous virtual event.
