Contract Telemedicine: Family Practice Job in Little Rock, Arkansas
This role is offered as a contract position, meaning you would be engaged as an independent contractor rather than an employee. Contract arrangements are typically structured under a defined agreement covering term, schedule, and rate, with 1099-based pay. As a contractor, you generally manage your own benefits, retirement contributions, and tax withholding, and malpractice terms are set out in the agreement itself. In exchange for handling these elements yourself, contract work often provides more schedule flexibility.
