BUY SELL FUNDING
Most small practices will
purchase life insurance to fund a buy-out in the event of a death, but few
practices consider this option to account for the possibility of a
disabling event. A Buy-Sell agreement is intended for practices with fewer than 10 shareholders and designed to fill a large gap in a practice's financial planning and protect the partner(s) in the event that a disability begins to affect the business.
By incorporating such a policy, a practice is able to compensate a disabled physician for his/her share in the practice. It is a very cost effective way to avoid substantial payments in the event that you or one of your partners becomes disabled.
