General Cardiology Locum Opportunity in Maine

Preference is 5 days/week of coverage, primarily in office . Call would mostly be on Fridays and in hospital during business hours (no call on weekends or weeknights). Basic diagnostic interpretation required - EMMC cardiology is available for consults as needed. Strong preference for full time coverage (4 weeks/month) from one locum.

Additional details: Our providers in clinic normally run 30min visits. On a full clinic 8-hour workday, the locum would likely have a base template of 7 hours of patient facing clinical time (base of 14 visits/day), with an hour for wrap-up/documentation at the end of each day prior to end of day. Should the locum feel comfortable and needing to add on any patients for urgency, follow-up, etc. that would be at their discretion. Duties over the course of our day would also include assisting in hospital coverage of call/consult as needed (only during clinic business hours), and reading/interpretation of study queues over the course of the day - these would be fully staffed clinical days (more than one doctor on). On days where the locum were the only doctor "on" for the practice, they would be expected to run a shorter clinical day of 50-75% visit volume of a normal day, allowing them the afternoon/end of the day for study/call/consult need clean-up prior to end of day.

To clarify: studies/reads for this group include interpretation of onsite echoes, stress tests, stress echoes, holters, event monitors, EKGs, nuclear medicine studies, and (soon) cardiac CT. Prioritization of studies would fall to urgent/inpatient studies first on a day-to-day basis, with the remaining queue volume being managed by the team of providers throughout the course of the days. There would also be capacity/availability to perform TEEs and cardioversions onsite when needed.
