Contract Telemedicine: Family Practice Job in Baton Rouge, Louisiana
This telemedicine family practice opportunity in Baton Rouge, Louisiana is offered as a contract arrangement. Under this structure, you would work as an independent contractor rather than an employee — typically compensated on a 1099 basis under a defined agreement covering term, schedule, and rate. Contractors generally manage their own benefits, retirement contributions, and tax withholding, and malpractice terms vary by agreement. In exchange for handling these arrangements yourself, contract roles often provide greater scheduling flexibility and competitive compensation rates.
This role is also listed under several other practice structures, including part-time, virtual, and various employed or group-based options, so you may wish to inquire about which arrangement best fits your goals. There is no patient call and no emergency department call associated with this position.
The financial offering for this role is listed at the national average tier. Candidates considered include those who are board certified, board eligible, or board ineligible, trained through allopathic or osteopathic programs, and either American or foreign medical graduates holding US citizenship or a green card. Physicians across a range of experience levels, from those currently in training to very experienced practitioners, are welcome to apply.
