Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How are optometry practices valued for buy-sell insurance?

Typically 55-75% of gross revenue, with professional services and optical sales valued differently. Equipment and inventory are assessed separately from practice goodwill.

Should optometry practices insure inventory separately?

While inventory is typically covered by property insurance, life insurance for debt coverage should include inventory financing obligations if applicable.
