Forensic Evaluation & Report Writing Psychiatrist (1099)

Job Opportunity

Island Psychiatry is seeking a board-certified psychiatrist for high-level forensic evaluation and report-writing work on a 1099 basis. This opportunity is ideal for a psychiatrist with strong clinical judgment, a professional temperament, and comfort with technology. This is intellectually serious work that is compensated at a higher compensation than typical clinical care. Prior forensic experience is not required. We are open to psychiatrists who are bright, disciplined, analytically strong, and capable of producing clear, organized, and defensible work. Training, structure, and a report-writing framework will be provided for the right candidate. This role offers the ability to do substantial professional work in a more flexible format, including remote report-writing, while building a valuable additional income stream outside of traditional patient-care hours.

What we are looking for:

• Board-certified psychiatrist
• Strong judgment and professionalism
• Excellent organizational ability
• Thoughtful, even temperament
• Ability to analyze records, interviews, and clinical information carefully
• Interest in evaluation, opinion formation, and written report development
• Willingness to work within an established structure and quality framework

What this opportunity offers:

• Flexible 1099 arrangement
• Remote work
• Intellectually engaging, non-routine work
• Training and editorial structure for the right psychiatrist
• Opportunity to develop a specialized, high-value skill set
• Compensation: Highly competitive and above market. Typical compensation ranges from $425–$550 per hour, with top-of-range rates for experienced psychiatrists (Training rate of $250/hr for first 10 hours and then up to $550 hr once training is complete)

This is a strong fit for psychiatrists seeking sophisticated side work with greater upside than standard hourly clinical work, without needing to build a forensic practice from scratch. To express interest, please send your CV and a brief note outlining your background and interest in this role.
