Contract Occupational Medicine Job in Santa Cruz, California
This Occupational Medicine opportunity in Santa Cruz, California is offered as a contract position, also available under a virtual practice structure. As a contract arrangement, you would be engaged as an independent contractor rather than an employee — typically paid under a defined agreement covering term, schedule, and rate, with you handling your own benefits, retirement, and tax withholding, and malpractice terms set by the specific agreement. This structure can offer flexibility in exchange for fewer employer-provided benefits.
The financial offering for this listing is noted as open. There is no patient call and no emergency department call associated with this role.
This position is open to candidates who are Board Certified or Board Eligible, trained through allopathic (MD) or osteopathic (DO) pathways, and welcomes both American Medical Graduates and Foreign Medical Graduates. It is available to US Citizens and Green Card holders, and suits candidates ranging from those currently in training to very experienced physicians.
