The majority of American medical schools do not provide any formal education with regard to signing a contract to provide medical services. Despite the lengthy medical training process, the skills and language required for physicians to protect themselves legally while practicing medicine are not incorporated into the curriculum. As a result, physicians graduate unprepared to evaluate employment contracts upon entering the workforce. This book aims to empower physicians to feel confident and knowledgeable during contract negotiation and will help physicians learn about some common areas that often need to be carefully reviewed or restructured in a contract. Topics Discussed Include: - Negotiation - Compensation and Benefits - Fair Market Value - Professional Liability Insurance - Non-Competition Agreements - Indemnification - Anti-Fraud Laws - Intellectual Property - Hospital Privileges and Due Process - Recruitment Agreements - Shareholder Agreements - Medical Directorships - Guaranteed Income Contracts - Academic Medicine Appointments The perfect gift for: Doctors at any stage of practice looking to sign a new contract Physicians who hire other physicians Residency Acceptance/Graduation Fellowship Acceptance/Graduation Medical Students Medical School Graduation
