Seeing beyond with the « Start Right » program
As a resident or early-career healthcare professional, you have access to a variety of insurance products available on the market. However, it is important to be informed about a number of specific features of these plans that may help you choose coverage that will continue to meet your needs throughout your career, not just at the start of your career.
Important notice:
Many insurance companies, including your association, will offer you discounted and very attractive premiums for your insurance when you are starting your career. However, they do not promote the fact that the cost will rise substantially in the future and you may be penalized by some features of the plan under certain circumstances if you decide to incorporate your practice.
