LTACH Physician PRN | Day Shifts | $150/hr | Rochelle Park, NJ

The Opportunity

PRN day coverage at a critical-illness recovery hospital in Rochelle Park, northern New Jersey. A census around 32, a full daytime specialty panel, and a five-hour day minimum so short shifts are still worth your time. Procedural competence is required. For a physician who wants LTACH work in defined blocks rather than a standing appointment, these shifts are straightforward to pick up.

What You'll Own

• Day coverage on a defined census of roughly 32 patients.
• Procedures as part of the work — intubation competence required.
• Full daytime specialty support, so you're not improvising on complex cases.
• A five-hour day minimum, meaning a short day still pays properly.

Must-Haves

• MD or DO
• Ability to intubate and perform procedures
• Pennsylvania license, or eligibility in process

Nice to Have

• Critical care or pulmonary background
• Prior LTACH experience
• Availability for recurring blocks

What Working Here Is Actually Like

• Per-shift compensation discussed directly on the first call, with a five-hour day minimum so a short day still pays properly.
• Malpractice and tail both covered. Tail is the one people forget to ask about until they leave.
• Epic, credentialing handled for you.
• No minimum annual commitment.
• Days only — no night rotation on the PRN line.
• Physician-owned and physician-managed since 2012. When you escalate a problem, it reaches a physician who still works clinical shifts.
• Licensure is faster than you expect if you're coming from out of state. Pennsylvania participates in the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact, so if you already hold a qualifying license elsewhere, adding this one typically runs one to three weeks rather than months.

Straight Talk

You'll be covering patients you didn't admit and won't follow, which in a population defined by slow trajectories means leaning hard on the chart and the team. That's manageable here because the specialty panel is present during the day, but it's a real difference from the 7-on / 7-off line where you own the arc.
