Welcome to Season 5, Episode 23 of Winning Isn't Easy. In this episode, we'll dive into the complicated topic of "Medical Residents and Disability Insurance."
Think disability insurance can wait? Think again. In today’s episode, disability law expert Nancy L. Cavey breaks down one of the most important, yet often overlooked, decisions facing medical residents and fellows: protecting your ability to earn through disability insurance. You’re in the thick of training, focused on learning, growing, and surviving residency. But the reality is that life can change in an instant. An unexpected illness or injury could derail everything you’ve worked for. Nancy explains how the right disability policy can provide the financial security you need to keep paying student loans, maintain your lifestyle, and stay on track - even if you can no longer practice in your specialty. She dives into why your first financial decision as a resident might be the most important one you’ll ever make, what you need to know about GSI (Guaranteed Standard Issue) disability policies, and why timing is everything when it comes to coverage. Whether you’re just getting started or planning ahead, this episode offers practical insight and expert guidance you won’t want to miss. Let’s get started.

One - The First Business Decision Every Medical Resident or Fellow Should Make to Insure Their Financial Future
