Has a doctor, an attorney, or accountant suddenly announced retirement?
Do these pronouncements put fear into your heart? It might be a medical practitioner suddenly announces he/she will no longer handle Medicare. That certainly creates fear. What to do? What to do?
If so far you have avoided making such decisions, gather the family and friends around, and start asking questions. Who is willing to take the elderly on? The medical profession is rapidly changing. Many new doctors do not even consider opening their own private practice, opting instead to go into the
Security offered by many hospitals willing to set up offices where a doctor may have private patients but is also available to the hospital. Lots of questions about this procedure and we don’t really know how it all works out but it is a challenge to those who want to keep their doctor.
Attorneys can also leave you with a feeling of distress. Who will handle the affairs – the wills, the inheritances, and life and death decisions? Many have the same law firm that has handled family business through more than one generation.
Now where do you go? Ask questions. Get references that can be checked. Put your fears to rest. Do it now!
