Built for physicians signing their first employment contract

Built for physicians signing their first employment contract

Your contract has an $18,500 problem. Find it before you sign.

Clause Check reads your physician employment agreement with AI, prices every hidden liability, and hands you a clause-by-clause redline plus a ready-to-send counter-offer. Flat $199, back within 24 hours.

The stakes

Most physicians sign the first draft. It was not written for them.

Employment agreements are drafted by the hospital’s counsel. The clauses that decide what you keep when you leave are the ones buried deepest.

Tail coverage

The bill that arrives after you leave.

Extended reporting endorsement is the single most expensive clause most physicians never read. If the hospital does not carry it, the cost transfers to you on your last day.

Restrictive covenants

A radius that quietly closes a whole city.

A 25-mile non-compete sounds narrow until it is applied to every partner site. Stacked across nine locations it can bar you from practising anywhere in the metro area for two years.

Duration benchmarked to market

Signing bonus

Money you have not actually been given yet.

A three-year clawback on a $20,000 signing bonus is well above market. Twelve-month proration is standard, and the difference is thousands of dollars if your plans change.

The math

$199 today, or $10,000+ on your way out.

A traditional legal review runs $500 to $1,500 and takes the better part of a week. Signing unadvised costs far more, and you only find out when you leave.

What you get

Not a summary. A document you can send.

Every review comes back as four things: what it costs you, what to change, the exact replacement language, and the message that asks for it.

Financial exposure, itemised

Tail coverage, clawbacks, CME caps and call obligations, each converted into what it will actually cost or earn you.

The tail clause was the whole negotiation and I had read straight past it. The counter-offer email went out the same evening and came back accepted.

Questions

Before you upload.

Still unsure whether it is worth it? Read a sample report first, then decide.

Is this legal advice?

Clause Check is a contract analysis service, not a law firm, and the report is not a substitute for representation. What you get is a priced breakdown of the terms plus language you can take to the employer yourself, or to an attorney if the situation calls for one.

How fast is the turnaround?

Every contract comes back within 24 hours of upload, including the redline, the report and the counter-offer script. Most are returned well inside that window.

What if my contract is longer than 30 pages?

The flat $199 covers agreements up to 30 pages, which is the large majority of physician employment contracts. Longer agreements are quoted before any work starts.

Will the hospital know I had it reviewed?

No. You receive the analysis privately and decide what to send. The counter-offer script is written to read as your own message, not as a third-party document.

What happens to my contract after the review?

It is encrypted in transit and at rest, never used to train models, and deleted on request. The platform is SOC 2 and ISO 27001 aligned and GDPR compliant.

What if there is nothing worth negotiating?

Then we tell you that, and you are not charged. It is rare: most first-draft physician agreements contain at least one term worth several thousand dollars.

You will sign this contract once. Read it properly first.

Upload your agreement tonight and have a priced redline and a counter-offer script in your inbox by tomorrow. Flat $199.
