1099 locum

Full details

A regional hospital in a port city on the shore of Lake Superior in northern Minnesota is seeking Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists for a long-term locum assignment. The facility is a large, full-service medical hub serving northern Minnesota and parts of Wisconsin, and it is a Level II Trauma Center that uses Epic as its electronic record. The role starts as soon as the provider is credentialed, a process the posting says takes about 90 days.

Work is inpatient only and follows a care team, supervised model with one-to-one support from anesthesiologists in the operating rooms. The schedule is weekday clinical shifts with no call required, though call can be taken if the provider wants it. The site has 15 operating rooms plus 4 endoscopy suites and specialty procedure areas. Cases include general, obstetrics with epidurals, orthopedics, GI, neuro, vascular, and some pediatric ENT and outpatient work, with roughly 4 to 5 patients per shift.

Compensation is an hourly rate that the posting describes as negotiable based on coverage and commitment, paid on a 1099 basis. The recruiter lists paid malpractice insurance, travel covered by flight, rental car, or mileage, and housing in a hotel or Airbnb or a possible stipend instead. Other listed perks include credentialing help, access to ICBA membership, and referral bonuses.

The city sits among forests and trails with water views, and the area suits outdoor activities such as hiking, skiing, and kayaking. The posting also notes access to arts, culture, and education in a community described as small-town in feel.
