A physician’s financial plan is often packed with benefits from hospitals. With so many benefits offered, decision fatigue can follow. How do you know what benefits to choose? Which one is right for you?
When you enroll in your benefits, two things can happen:
- If you don’t consider your entire financial plan, you make financial planning decisions about your benefits blindly, and
- You can easily spend your paycheck before you even receive it, because the cost of benefits can add up quickly if not properly framed and vetted.
This guide is a general reference when enrolling in your hospital benefits plan. It should be used for making quick decisions and framing each benefit appropriately. The biggest misstep I normally see in benefit election is not having a plan for your benefits enrollment and haphazardly making financial decisions. This guide is the first step in developing your benefits enrollment plan.
