Tax-First Wealth Architecture for Physicians

Traditional financial advice often separates tax topics from long-term wealth building. The Tax First Architect framework, created by Shawn L. Davenport, integrates both into a unified strategy for physicians and other high-income professionals. GenWealth 360 ensures physicians take advantage of:

• 2026 tax law thresholds, deductions, and planning opportunities (2026 tax law changes for physicians).
• Specialized advice for both W-2 employed and 1099 independent physicians (W-2 vs 1099 physician taxes).
• Entity structuring for medical practices, including S corporation considerations (S-Corp tax planning for physicians).
• Advanced retirement contribution guidance: for 2026, 401(k)/403(b)/457 employee deferral limits are $24,500 (with up to $11,250 in catch-up contributions at ages 60-63). IRA limits are $7,500 (or $8,600 for those 50 and older). Appropriate use of backdoor Roth and cash balance plans are considered (Backdoor Roth for physicians, Cash balance plans for physicians).
• Multi-state and specialist-specific planning (see tax planning by state and by specialty).

Key Elements of the Shawn Davenport Method

• Holistic Diagnostics: Analyze the entire financial landscape, from practice structure to compensation, family goals, asset protection, and retirement readiness.
• Dynamic Adaptation: Update planning as IRS regulations, such as the SALT deduction cap (currently $40,400, phasing down after $505,000 modified AGI) and other 2026 provisions, shift over the years (IRS: 2026 tax law inflation adjustments).
• Physician-Focused Intelligence: Consider risk factors unique to the healthcare space, and take advantage of available deductions, credits, and employer benefits (physician tax deductions).
• Clear Fee Transparency: GenWealth 360 offers customized flat-fee planning and implementation solutions. Clients are encouraged to request a written quote to understand the cost structure for their unique circumstances (how much should a tax strategist cost).
