Find Anesthesiology Jobs With VitalSolution

Any position within the medical field is as much a calling as it is a career. Despite the sometimes long and unexpected hours, achieving your ideal work-life balance is possible, especially as an independent contractor. If you are seeking employment in the anesthesiology sector – whether as a cardiac anesthesiologist, pediatric anesthesiologist, or general anesthesiologist – VitalSolution is a physician-led organization that understands what is important to you. We support our clinician partners by helping them find the roles they were meant for and ensuring they have the resources they need for success in every workplace.

Pursuing the VitalSolution Model

One of the first things you’ll learn from our physician recruiters is how the VitalSolution Model can give you more control over your life. When you partner with us, you will be a 1099 contractor with a schedule that enables a higher degree of work-life balance. Most of our staff work one week off, one week on a schedule block, meaning you’ll have 26 full weeks of freedom to pursue other aspects of your life year-round.

Factors to Consider When Looking for 1099 Anesthesia Jobs

1099 position is a tax category that applies to independent contractors and entrepreneurs. As an independent contractor, you have full control over your schedule, better pay negotiation power, and ultimately control where you work. You are also fully responsible for paying taxes, maintaining insurance, and managing your savings. At the end of every year, you receive a 1099-NEC form instead of a W-2.

One of the most important things for a 1099 contractor to understand is how this distinction affects the way they are compensated. Like a W-2 employee, you will agree on an hourly fee and receive compensation from your employer. As an independent contractor, you are likely to be paid at a higher rate than a standard employee. 

Here are some other factors to keep in mind:

  • No paycheck withholding: Employers can deduct state and federal taxes directly from an employee’s paycheck. As a 1099 contractor, you will need to make quarterly estimated tax payments from the full paychecks you receive.
  • The self-employment tax: Employees and employers are able to split the costs of Social Security and Medicare taxes, but when you are self-employed, you will be responsible for contributing the full amount, which amounts to about 15.3% of your earnings.
  • Securing your own insurance and savings: Self-employment also means you will be responsible for securing your own health insurance, malpractice insurance, and creating accounts for retirement savings if you so desire. 

VitalSolution has a number of long-standing relationships with tax, health insurance, student loan, and similar companies to help you understand these differences and make the right decisions for your needs.

Building Your Work-Life Balance

Overall, neither employment model is better or worse — it is all about your personal preferences. If you plan to have a career in one hospital and find minimal tax liability appealing, regular employment is a good fit for you. If you prefer more variety, locum tenens positions offer short-term flexibility. However, if you want more freedom within your role, becoming an independent contractor can be a highly appealing anesthesiologist opportunity.

Working as a 1099 anesthesiologist offers you maximum career flexibility. Whether you want to travel the country and go on adventures or you maintain a busy schedule outside of work, this alternative career path allows you to design your perfect balance. With VitalSolution, finding a role like this is simple when working with our anesthesia recruitment team.

Experience VitalSolution’s Clinician-Led Leadership

VitalSolution champions a working model designed to fit your life. We recognize the workforce’s growing desire for anesthesiologist careers that fit around your life, rather than the other way around. That is why our team has developed an innovative rotation model that ensures clinicians receive a schedule they love. Underserved hospitals, trauma centers, and medical facilities connect with people passionate about delivering critical care services where they are needed most.

We set ourselves apart by offering more support and unlimited opportunities through our nationwide partnerships. Our physicians benefit from:

  • Consistent block scheduling: Our physicians operate on schedules that offer them extensive free time to pursue other interests while still being able to establish themselves within the hospital community. You will likely work a seven-day on/off or 14-day on/off schedule, meaning you will work that many days and then have the same number of days off to travel, support your family, or pursue other goals. 
  • Nationwide physician resources: VitalSolution was created by physicians, for physicians. We understand the tools and resources you need because we have been where you are. Our highly skilled general anesthesiologists and subspecialists work in regional areas across dozens of states, ensuring there is always someone nearby to make a connection and update your knowledge with. Furthermore, our Regional Chief Medical Officers are available to you around the clock to answer your questions and provide support.
  • Additional financial incentives: Your role is important, and when you fulfill your duties well, we want to reward you. Our providers are eligible for our Quality360 bonuses every year. We will complete a biannual evaluation of your work, and based on your accuracy and patient satisfaction, you can receive a nice add-on to your standard pay.
