Credentialing & Start:

phased start , allowing the incoming physician to begin seeing patients as the necessary approvals are completed rather than requiring all payer and clinic credentialing to be finalized before starting.

Why Consider This Opportunity?
This assignment offers a combination that is difficult to find in traditional locum coverage:

a four-day clinical/surgical workweek, consistent ongoing coverage, home call, and a legitimate temp-to-permanent pathway.

Physicians interested in remaining long-term will be considered for permanent employment, while those seeking locum coverage can initially commit to the

36 month coverage period .

Interested OB/GYN physicians with an active Alabama license are encouraged to apply with an updated CV for complete schedule, call, compensation, and assignment details.
