Would it look bad on a resume to quit a full time job at CVS if you immediately start multiple PRN hospital positions?
So I work at CVS and hate the current situation I'm in at my store. Would it look bad on my resume to quit CVS and start multiple (2-3) PRN hospital positions? Yes, I'm aware they would not come with health insurance and benefits. There aren't any good full time options open right now. I am open to purchasing my own health insurance and I am good with budgeting so I am okay with a lower income for a time.
I just don't want my resume to look bad based on how competitive the market is right...

Opening a multi-provider clinic
So I'm thinking of trying to open a clinic with the intention of growing it to include multiple therapists, physicians, IOP offerings, etc.
Anyone with experience here that can shed some light on how to get started or what to look out for? I'm in the very early phase of trying to educate myself on how to do this, so forgive my naivety.
Also what's the best way to attract and find therapists? Should I get on insurance panels before trying to find staff? (Source: Student Doctor Network)

How are Resident IMG ’s paying their healthcare bills ?
The place that I come from has the employees health scheme where a resident pays insurance amount as part of their monthly deductions from their monthly stipend. I wonder what it is like for a Non-US IMG doing their residency in US ? I hear the health care is costly in the US and how are you guys managing it ? Will the salary you get paid is enough to handle health care costs ?

Website that provides insurance payment info based on e/m code?
Is there a website that provides this information? Is it broken down by insurance, or just average of the region? And is it actually somewhat accurate? (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Does anyone know if it costs money to become uncredentialed by insurance companies?
I am changing jobs from a practice where I am credentialed with insurance companies to a fee for service practice. To drop insurance companies, is there a fee associated with that? I just want to make sure before finishing contract negotiations.
Thanks! (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Full-time job and full-time post-bacc or quit and find part-time work?
In June, I quit my full-time job with the intention of getting part-time jobs in clinical research and scribing. However, shortly after I quit I was offered a full-time job in my original field (software engineering) and accepted it because the company is pretty chill and I should be able to balance the full-time work schedule with full-time school schedule. Also I live in NYC and having a decent paycheck and health insurance is very helpful.
However, I'm quickly realizing that apart from...

Lumbar RFA after fusion
Patient has L3-L5 posterior fusion and R SI fusion. Complains of persistent low back/buttock pain worse to the right side. No extremity pain, just some intermittent n/t to lateral feet. Back pain worse with standing, no pain while seated. On exam, +facet loading in low back but nothing above fusion site. Tenderness over right SI. Would you do an L5 DR block by itself? Would insurance pay for this?? (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Patients keep cancelling outpt visit due to being in IOP/PHP
Can anyone explain this as I havent seen it before.
Several patients are in IOP/PHP and give last second cancellation notice saying that they will be charged i guess extra for services at the IOP if they conduct an outpatient visit with an outpatient psychiatrist while they are in IOP.
For those who take insurance in outpatient, how do you navigate this? (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Is this a good nonclinical volunteering opportunity?
Title says it all. Family has had a personal experience with high healthcare costs and I figured a good way to contribute to greater healthcare equity is by volunteering at the California HICAP program, where I will be helping seniors navigate Medicare, compare insurance plans to figure out how to get the best coverage for their buck, etc. I've heard that nonclinical volunteering should be directed to those less fortunate than myself (food bank, soup kitchen, homeless shelter, etc). Will...

Anyone here who started their own private practice?
How did you get patients? Did you send mailers? Just word of mouth?

1099 income, ballpark on taxes
Trying to figure out about how much I’d take home with a 1099 gig in florida. Could y’all help me?
500k 1099 income per year
I’d have to pay:
Health insurance (approx 25k per year)
Malpractice (approx 35k per year?)
401k (66k per year)
Figure these items are deductible and lower my taxable income to approx 374,000. Then I’m plugging this into an online tax calculator and putting 374k in as my 1099 income, my tax liability is about 105k. Is this about right?
thanks!
I toss around the idea...
