Veeda Mashayekh, Associate with McGrew Miller Bomar & Bagley, recently visited Grady Hospital to speak with Internal Medicine Residents about the intricacies of physician contracting and important considerations to keep in mind as they approach the next stage of their medical journey. During the presentation, she engaged with the residents, answered questions, and discussed key factors to consider when delving into employment contracts post-graduation.

The presentation covered critical aspects such as foundational terms and obligations within contracts, the various compensation structures available, and the impact of third-party payer incentive programs on compensation models. Veeda emphasized the importance of scrutinizing implications for different termination types, especially concerning non-compete clauses and restrictive covenants. Further, she underscored the significance of the malpractice insurance provided by the employer and how it could affect the physician’s risk exposure.



She discussed effective negotiation strategies and the importance of utilizing all possible benefits available. She urged the physicians to be proactive, assertive, and informed as they establish a foundation for a successful professional relationship. Emphasizing the need for legal counsel, Veeda encouraged physicians to seek assistance in navigating complexities, negotiating terms, and securing contracts aligning with their professional goals.
