Meet Prescription Wealth

Physicians are unique in the financial needs. Whether you are beginning your medical journey in medical school, or are looking at full-time retirement and legacy building, or in-between, your financial needs are unique from your peers.

The Healthy Physician Foundation is focused on physician wellbeing especially in the area of financial wellness. The stats say it all:

• Physicians are increasingly seeing a larger part of their compensation from salary versus other types of compensation, while the number of physicians seeing compensation coming from one source decreased (AMA Benchmark Survey).
• Overall physician compensation has risen over the past six years, but when factoring in inflation, physician salaries have actually been stagnant on average (Doximity).
• Nine in ten young physicians felt somewhat or completely unprepared if a disability prevented them from practicing. (AMA)
• 23% of the medical school class of 2024 faced educational debt of $300,000 or more. (AAMC)

The Healthy Physician Foundation has partnered with multiple financial options to support your needs throughout your career. The best thing is these options can support you even if you leave the DC area (although we prefer you stay!).
