The ad does not say. Ask the recruiter:

- Partnership. Years to partner, buy-in amount, and what you buy: ASC units, ancillaries, or a title without equity?
- Advanced procedures. How many ERCPs and EUS a year would a new hire actually get?
- APP and staff support. How many APPs, nurses, and schedulers per physician?
- Malpractice. Occurrence or claims-made, and who pays for tail coverage if you leave?
- Noncompete. Radius in miles and length in months, and does it apply if they end your contract?
- Visa. Who files the petition, are they cap-exempt, and have they placed a Conrad 30 J-1 physician before?
