Minefields in Your Hospital Contract
Although a physician may be excited about an upcoming job and may not anticipate having any reason to leave, things sometimes do not work out. A physician needs to review any contract offer from a hospital to negotiate what is best for them. The most common clauses in a contract with a hospital are:
- Noncompete
- Written notice of an intention to resign ranging from 30 to 180 days
- Claims-based coverage
- Compensation complexities
- Indemnification clause
