Pros
-Flexible as you choose your own schedule. -Reasonable rate at $160/hr but ONLY if you are in a market multiplier state(not Tennessee) and ONLY if you provide more than >180hrs/month of availability. So must do full time essentially to get this rate. In a non- market multiplier state, it’s $100/patient evaluation you complete. Which is severely underpaid as a IM physician. - provide a rental car
Cons
- Depending on the area your cancellation rates can be as high as 40%, and you do not get compensated for no shows/cancellations. So essentially just wasted time on your part. - All communication about your schedule and area preferences are done through your recruiter, and the network support team. And neither is aligned or communicate with each other. They give you the run around when trying to address an issue. 3 months in a row my schedule was messed up (scheduled me for a different state or did not schedule any patients at all)! Network support would tell me to speak to my recruiter, and my recruiter would deny any responsibility/accountability, and blame network support. Very unprofessional when communicating through text or email. It’s clear you can’t rely on signify health as a full time position. Absolutely no respect for physicians
