Contract Pulmonary Medicine: Critical Care Job in Providence, Rhode Island
This Pulmonary Medicine: Critical Care position in Providence, Rhode Island is offered as a contract arrangement, alongside a virtual option. As a contract role, you would engage as an independent contractor rather than an employee, typically working under a defined agreement covering term, schedule, and rate. Contractors generally handle their own benefits, retirement, and tax withholding, and malpractice arrangements vary by agreement — in exchange, this structure can offer flexibility and often a premium compensation rate.
The financial offering for this listing is noted as open, to be discussed as part of the agreement rather than presented as a fixed figure.
This is a permanent opening with no patient call rotation and no emergency department call required. Candidates should be board certified, hold an MD or DO degree from a U.S. medical school, and be authorized to work as a U.S. citizen; physicians at any experience level, from recently trained to very experienced, are welcome to apply.
