Overview

　　The Physician is responsible for supervising and providing necessary and desirable medical care within the Physician’s specialty to Dartmouth-Hitchcock patients, consistent with the policies and procedures of DHC, the facility at which care is rendered, and the directions of the Medical Director in collaboration with the Service Line Leader or his/her designee.

　　If the Physician’s specialty is such that call coverage is required, it is expected that the Physician will rotate call coverage with those physicians and allied health professionals in his or her specialty (as applicable) so that each provider, including the Physician, has a comparable amount of on call time during nights, weekends, and holidays for providing coverage outside of standard business hours. Hours that are designated as on call hours will be defined by the departments. Parties expect that while on call, physician shall remain in close proximity as directed by department chair or designee. Patient calls are to be addressed in a timely fashion.
