Job description
A medical center in the Des Moines, Iowa area needs OB hospitalist coverage, with 48 open dates running from late December through the end of April.
Twenty-four hour in-house shifts, 7a to 7a. Call rooms are available. You will not be scheduled more than two 24-hour shifts back to back.
This is a working laborist role. The center delivers more than 2,900 babies a year and runs an 8-bed OB emergency department seeing roughly 1,389 visits annually, about 463 of which end in a delivery. You are the sole OB physician on site during your shift, covering unassigned deliveries, transfers, and anything emergent. VBACs and twins are in scope. No GYN responsibilities at all.
Maternal fetal medicine is on call. Residents and medical students are on site. The hospital partners with midwives from an affiliated practice who deliver here but do not hold delivery privileges, so you handle those deliveries and the birth planning alongside them. This is also the base for the only maternity transport team in Iowa. Epic.
$3,168 per 24-hour shift. Flights, lodging, rental car and mileage are reimbursed within the facility’s caps.
