Depending on your job situation, there’s a good chance that at some point, you may switch from a guaranteed salary to being paid based on your productivity. The productivity may be based on Revenue Value Units/RVUs or collections. Many people, and probably more so trainees looking at their first position post medical training, focus on the salary offered. If you plan on being at the job for more than 2 years, you’ll want to look ahead at what your compensation will be like and how it may change. In this episode, I talk about things to consider whether you’ve already started your job or are looking at new jobs.

Many people tend to think of Financial Independence as a static goal, achieving some magical number in net worth or passive income that means you don’t have to work for money anymore. However, many people will push the goal post once they achieve their number, feeling like they need more. I see financial independence more as a journey with different stages. In this week’s podcast episode, I’ll talk about four different levels of financial impendence. Survival FI, Coast FI, Traditional FI and FAT FIRE.

You may have heard that the National Association of Relators was sued by a group of homeowners earlier this year and the outcome of the lawsuit was a settlement included a changes to relator compensation. Traditionally, when you sell a piece of property through a relator, the seller pays both the seller’s agent and the buyer’s agent anywhere between 4 and 7% of the sale price. The new rules will require buyers’ brokers to enter into written agreements with their buyers. It also prohibits disclosing the compensation for agents on the MLS. Brokers will also no longer be required to subscribe to the MLS. What will this actually mean for you and me when we go to buy or sell property? No one really knows yet but I brought Samantha Chin, a relator and my oldest friend, to speculate about what could happen once these rules go into effect.

In the quest to build multiple income streams, is doing physician surveys something to consider? In this episode, I discuss my own experience with medical surveys as well as the experience of Dr. Rikki Racela, who wrote a blog article entitled “How I made $30,000 Taking Doctor Surveys” (You can read the blog article for yourself at https://www.whitecoatinvestor.com/how-i-made-30000-taking-doctor-surveys/) As suggested by the blog article, it is possible to make a five figure amount doing medical surveys, but it will depend on a few factors. Tune in to this week’s episode to learn more about what’s involved with doing medical surveys and what factors make it more likely that you may actually get a decent payout from doing them.

What do you actually know about the Social Security Program and what kind of benefits you may possibly receive from Social Security? If you are like me, not all that much. You may know that you pay taxes to Social Security and may think it’s unlikely you’ll get much payout or all those taxes that you have paid over your entire working life. I spent some time learning a lot more about social security and this episode is the fruits of that labor. Chances are, social security will provide some benefits during retirement, though it certainly will be far from enough to live on.

Employment contracts layout the terms of employment and generally layout the terms for what can cause termination of employment as well as any consequences that result from termination of employment. If you are considering leaving your current job for another job, then you will want to find your current employment contract and review what you previously agreed to. In this episode, I specifically talk about non-competes, how much notice is required when you plan to leave your job, and malpractice tail insurance.

If you, any of your family members, friends, or patients are taking a very expensive medication for which a coupon card or program is being used for assistance to pay for the medication, you will want to tune in to learn about the Co-Pay Accumulator Policy. Dr. Celine Lee, a rheumatologist practicing in the state of Utah, explains what the Co-Pay Accumulator Policy is and how it can significantly impact the finances of anyone taking an expensive medication.

If you would like to read more about the Co-Pay Accumulator Policy, Dr. Celine mentioned an article that can be found at https://www.crohnscolitisfoundation.org/patientsandcaregivers/managing-the-cost-of-ibd/copay-accumulator-maximizer-programs

Some states have banned copay accumulators. As of summer 2023, 19 states have banned copay accumulators: Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Washington, and West Virginia, as well as Puerto Rico.

If you live in a state that has NOT banned copay accumulators, be an advocate:

Contact your congressman

Contact your state's insurance department

Call your insurer to ask questions. Depending on what you learn, you may want to talk to your employer. Your employer might not be aware they signed up for this program or how it negatively affects their employees.

Dr. Celine Lee is a Rheumatologist practicing in the state of Utah. She is not an insurance expert in anyway. This podcast episode is for informational and entertainment purposes only.

Private lending offers possible stock like returns over a short term time horizon while being uncorrelated with the activity of the stock market. There is thought to be a higher level of risk compared to investments like CDs or government bonds, but these investments can be backed by hard assets like real estate, and thus lowering the risk. Sound intriguing? Listen to learn more!

In this episode, I mention the DLP Capital lending fund as an example. This is not meant to be investment advice and I get no compensation from DLP Capital. I have not personally invested with DLP Capital at the time of the creation of this podcast episode. I also mention Doc2Doc Lending, for which I do have a financial relationship and hold a small equity position (like holding stock) with Doc2Doc Lending.
