In today’s difficult professional liability climate, physicians need to reduce the extent to which their assets are exposed to malpractice allegations and other lawsuits. In response to this need, PIAM, a subsidiary of the Massachusetts Medical Society, has developed a special approach to create added financial protection for physicians.

As an introduction to this new approach, PIAM will hold a series of seminars across the state on asset protection planning for physicians (see box for dates and locations). The seminars, starting later this month, will address a variety of topics on creditor protection for employed and nonemployed physicians, including insurance coverage, real estate ownership, retirement and education plans, and the use of trusts.

Seminar speakers will include attorneys from law firms across the state, including Mintz Levin, Bowditch & Dewey, and McManus Norton & MacNamee, as well as advisors from PIAM Financial Services. Updated information will be available on the PIAM website at www.piam.com. You may also arrange for an in-house workshop for your group or hospital by calling Chip Moynihan at PIAM at (781) 434-7398.
