The method of payment for doctors varies depending on the specific hospital or clinic where they work. There are generally three ways in which doctors can receive payment:
- As an employee: In this scenario, the hospital or clinic directly employs the doctor, and they receive regular salary payments as per the employment agreement.
- As a contractor: Some doctors work on a contractual basis, where they provide services to the hospital or clinic as an independent contractor. In this case, the doctor may invoice for their services and receive payment based on the agreed terms and conditions.
- Medrecruit direct payment: In certain cases, we handle the payment process and pay the doctor directly for their services as a casual employee or via their company. This method simplifies the payment process and ensures a smooth and efficient financial transaction.
The specific payment arrangement for each job can be confirmed by your dedicated recruitment specialist. They will provide you with detailed information regarding how you will be paid for each position you undertake, taking into account factors such as private billing, if applicable, and any specific payment arrangements set by the hospital or clinic.
When you sign up with Medrecruit, we’ll start by checking your credentials and making sure you’re ‘job ready’ with all the right paperwork in place. You’ll receive regular updates of jobs which match your search terms, and your personal Solutions Specialist will be in touch if they see a job they think you’ll be interested in.
When you apply for a job, Medrecruit will present your credentials, experience and attributes to the relevant contact. This is why it’s important to only sign up with one agency – hiring staff get frustrated by multiple presentations from the same doctor.
