Frequently Asked Questions

Are you a fiduciary?

Yes, ever sinceĀ we were founded.Ā 

How does Physician Family get paid?

The fees you see above are the only compensation we will receive as we serve you. Make A Plan and Get On TrackĀ project fees are payable in advance by credit card. Stay On Track membership fees are payable monthly in advance by ACH bank draft. As a fee ā€“ only firm, we never accept commissions, referral fees or other payments that might taint the advice we give.

Which pricing tier applies to my family?

If you own at least 50% of a business that employs people outside your immediate family (a clinic, or surgical practice for example), the Practice pricing tier applies.Ā If you are a partner in private practice or earning income from self-only employment (locums or medical director, for example) the Partner pricing tier applies.Ā The ProviderĀ pricing tier applies in all other cases (W-2 employees of hospitals, clinics and non-profit healthcare organizations for example).

Does the fee include my spouse?

Yes. The fees above cover services for your family: you, your spouse and your children under age 18.

Will you help my spouse if I die?

If you are a Stay On Track member who dies or becomes cognitively impaired, we will step in and take care of your family by helping your spouse make good financial decisions for years to come. Once a physician family, always a physician family.

Do you charge an asset-based or ā€œpercentage AUMā€ fee?

Absolutely not. No matter how much you invest, your Stay On Track membership fee covers account management (where we manage your accounts for you) and investment guidance (where you manage your accounts yourself with specific mutual fund recommendations we provide).

Will you ever increase my fees?

Probably so. Our prices are based on the cost of employing great people, so we do occasionally increase membership rates to keep up with inflation.

Nope.
