This is a rare opportunity to join a long-standing, democratic group of peer emergency physicians due to the addition of a new site. The main hospital is a level two trauma center with 69K volume providing the secondary clinical rotation for a new Emergency Medicine Residency Program. Partnership is earned after two years and includes a full vote as well as an equal share in group profits with no buy-in
required.  Physicians are free to contribute to the residency program with teaching, research or any other contributions they desire, though none is required as the program has faculty in place.  Protected time is available as well.  Six residents a year enter the program and provide ancillary coverage.

Full electronic medical records are in place and the ED was newly built in 2000 with major additions added in 2004 and 2010 for a total of 48 treatment bays including full trauma suites and observation unit.  Radiology coverage is 24/7 with CT in suite,
and lab turn around time is under 1 hour. Coverage is superb with 8 and 12-hour shifts, and the docs are required to work 120 hours per month to be considered full time.

Incomes start at $165 an hour with a comprehensive benefit package totally covered by the group. Physicians earn 80 hours of paid leave in years one and two and that
goes to 200 hours with partnership in year three.  Docs have the option, as partners, of going with a guaranteed salary and totally-paid benefits plus profit sharing, or full
RVU-based compensation with a cafeteria benefit plan plus profit sharing.  Average annual partners share tops $80K.

This is a lovely small city located 3 ours from Chicago and Indianapolis,
90 minutes form St. Louis with exceptionally strong schools in the burbs,
wonderful lifestyle, low crime and low cost of living while retaining ease of
travel with a full airport and proximity to large cities.

If you want both the academic involvement along with
clinical, private group earnings, don’t hesitate;  this will go fast!
