MD Physician Services Raises Key Physician Concerns in Pre-Budget Consultation

Retirement security and portfolio growth, tax-reduction programs, student and resident debt challenges and pending FATCA regulations were all discussed as part of the federal government’s pre-budget consultation in Toronto on Jan. 26, 2012.

Brian F. Peters, President and Chief Executive Officer, MD Physician Services was one of a small group of business leaders invited to participate in a session chaired by the Honourable Tony Clement, President of the Treasury Board and Minister for the Federal Economic Development Initiative for Northern Ontario.

“Clients and their advisors struggle with these issues every day - I welcomed the opportunity to share their concerns directly with a senior minister in the federal government,” Mr. Peters said. “We think it is important to speak to the financial and practice management needs of Canadian physicians whenever the opportunity presents itself and we look forward to continuing to support our clients in these areas.”
