Planning our newest major textbook
By Ann Miller RN MHA [ph-770-448-0769]

Dear Stock Brokers, IBs and Securities Analysts,
Greetings from the Institute of Medical Business Advisors, in Atlanta, Georgia.
Historical Review
As you may know, we released: Financial Planning Handbook for Physicians and Advisors, some time ago. It has enjoyed much success and acclaim in the medical and financial service sectors.
Recently, we have been asked to produce the next edition of this book for our target market of physicians, nurses, medical professionals, healthcare administrators – and those in the financial services sector who target this large and fertile, but rapidly changing niche market.
Why Now?
Urgency for the update has been prompted by ARRA, HI-TECH, the flash-crash of 2008 and the day-crash of 2011; by social, macro-economic and demographic changes; by political fiat and especially the PP-ACA.
Our medical colleagues are frustrated, afraid and fearful for their financial futures. They WANT informed advice.
Thus, true integrated financial planning information that targets this market – very expertly and specifically – is greatly needed.
The Invitation
And so, we ask if you are interested in contributing an updated vision of an existing book chapter.
-
INVESTMENT BANKING-SECURITIES-MARKETS-MARGIN
-
HOSPITAL EMPLOYEE BENEFITS AND STOCK OPTIONS
-
INVESTMENT POLICY STATEMENT CONSTRUCTION
Not to worry – The original MS-WORD® chapter files are archived and available for use. We will forward it to you, upon assignment acceptance.
And, we are again fortunate that our Editor-in-Chief will be Dr. David Edward Marcinko FACFAS MBA CMP™ along with Professor Hope Rachel Hetico RN MHA CMP™ serving as Managing Editor.
They opined at a recent interview for the ME-P.
” … We have entered into an emerging era in the financial planning ecosystem. It is a new era where one size does not fit all; and off-the-shelf financial products and mass sales customization is no long adequate for physicians and medical professionals; or their related generic financial planners or wire-house advisors.
It is a period of rapid change, shifting reimbursement paradigms and salary reductions that focus the healthcare industrial complex on pay-for-performance [P4], compensation for value and quality care; rather than procedures performed and quantity of care.
All must learn to do more with less professionally; and plan their personal financial lives more efficiently than ever before. Mistakes will be more difficult to overcome and the wiggle room that high income earning physicians, nurses and medical professionals used to enjoy is being narrowed by demographic, economic, social, technological and political fiat.
This emerging financial planning analog follows the health industry’s fiscal metamorphosis …”
Style Instructions
The look and feel, format and style, and font and size of the book will remain the same. We use endnotes, not foot notes; and include mini-case reports or illustrative case models. It will be a major text; not a handbook.
Timeline for submission is about 3 months. Additional time is available, if needed, for a comprehensive update. But, we are trying to avoid running too far along into 2014 in order to avoid income tax season and the related time constraints on all concerned.
A Pleasure – Not Burden
This should be a pleasurable project for you; and not anxiety provoking.
So, if you are a medically focused and experienced financial advisor with an: MBA, CFP®, PhD, MD, DDS, MSA/MS, CPA, RN, CMP®, DO, JD and/or CFA degree or designation, etc; please let me know if you are interested in updating and revising our chapters. OR, authoring a new to the world chapter.
Your Payback
In return for your conscientious industry, you will receive a complimentary edition of the entire textbook; be listed on this ME-P as thought-leader with related book advertising content attributed to you; and given e-exposure to our almost 600,000 readers and ME-P subscribers …. Such the deal!
And, you will be added to our roster of experts for potential referrals, interviews, pod-casts and other marketing efforts
Assessment
Regardless of your decision, we remain apostles promoting your core vision of physician focused financial planning whenever possible.
Or, you may suggest another possible author- writer-expert contributor; if you wish.
Just let me know; ASAP [MarcinkoAdvisors@msn.com]
