Contract Risks We Catch
These clauses appear in contracts every day. Our AI flags them instantly.
Non-Competes & Restrictive Covenants
Non-competes are banned in CA, MN, and other statesβbut many contracts still include them or use alternative restrictions like non-solicitation clauses.
Note: CA/MN: These clauses are void, but watch for "non-solicit" and TRAP clauses instead.
Tail Coverage Traps
Who pays for malpractice tail coverage? Many contracts leave you with a $50,000+ bill when you leave.
Patient Non-Solicitation
Clauses that prevent you from treating your own patients if you change employers.
Productivity Guarantees
Unrealistic RVU or patient volume requirements that are impossible to meet.
Call Coverage Obligations
Undefined or excessive on-call requirements that destroy work-life balance.
Termination Clauses
"Without cause" termination that lets employers fire you for any reason with minimal notice.
Private Equity & Management Authority
If your practice gets acquired by PE, they may have authority to change your hours, pay, and location without consent.
