Dominion Medical Consulting is seeking a family practice/internal medicine (or similar) physician for conducting PRN medical disability examinations for the Social Security Administration and Tennessee Disability Determination Services. This is an independent contractor, 1099 position. You would work alongside a medical assistant to help you check in patients and who would obtain claimant vital signs for you at our location in Knoxville. We primarily need someone with Thursday, Friday, or Weekend availability.
INTERESTED RESIDENTS ENCOURAGED TO APPLY.
Exams are a thorough head-to-toe physical assessment, with muscle strength and joint ROM included. Examinations are low risk. No doctor-patient relationship is established. No prescribing and no follow-ups. Right now, there is enough work to support at least a few days per month, 8:00-5:00, potentially more if desired. This is a great moonlighting/side-gig opportunity, but not full-time.
Work will be contracted out on an as-needed basis. Set your own schedule and work as much or as little as you would like. Reimbursement is $70 per completed report and appointments are scheduled every 30 minutes, which should give you plenty of time to complete your exam and report all at once without having to take much paperwork home.
Templates and information about what should be included in examinations would all be provided. You do not have to make the determination about whether or not a claimant is disabled.
This is an ideal opportunity for someone seeking additional streams of revenue, or a way to stay active in retirement. We look forward to speaking with you!
