EP 72: Protecting Your Practice With an 831(b) entity with Clay Ogden

Thriving Practice with Tracy Cherpeski

Clay Ogden of Strategic Risk Alternatives 831(b) joins us today to talk Risk Management.

Clay shares a lot of great information about how practice owners can use excess revenues and profits to protect themselves and their business against unforeseen and uninsurable circumstances through investing in their own 831(b) entity.

Clay gave several examples of how protecting and increasing the efficiency of your business would be beneficial. Mainly, though, Clay shares that their clients say they’re able to sleep better at night knowing they have a nice cushion to land on in the event of unforeseen circumstances, such as elective procedures being delayed for over 2 years during a global pandemic, or temporary or permanent loss of a key employee, or any other event not covered by insurance.

This is an excellent planning tool with your CPA, financial advisor, or other advisor, and could be a great way to create perhaps a tax break, but more importantly, to protect yourself and your practice against the unknown.

I thought it was very interesting that these funds could be used in various ways that could also be beneficial to your practice. Give it a listen and find out for yourself.

Clay’s parting wisdom is:

• Learn more about 831(b) and other options that could prove to be beneficial, in terms of protection and in terms of leveling-off your cash flows year over year.

This conversation is very enlightening, and Clay explains in clear terms how this could be a great business tool for your practice. So, grab a beverage or a snack and settle-in to listen to Clay and learn about 831(b) entities.
