Cardiologist-only recruiting
Cardiologist Tail Coverage
Compare call, cath lab scope, and privileging before you commit
Direct answer: Cardiologist Tail Coverage—educational context for cardiologists exploring locum tenens. Locum Career Hub recruits MD/DO cardiologists and connects you with hospitals and groups when mutual fit exists.
This pillar guide is a long-form reference for cardiologists. It is educational—not medical, legal, or tax advice. For recruiter-led matching after you read it, submit an inquiry with your subspecialty and preferred states.
Tail is an exit tax when ignored
Claims-made policies can require tail coverage after you leave. Who pays should be explicit.
Surprises here wreck exits.
Negotiate scenarios
Employer termination without cause, non-renewal, and physician resignation can be treated differently.
Get scenarios in writing.
Locums parallel
Locum malpractice structures also need clarity on claims-made/occurrence and post-assignment responsibility.
Ask every time.

FAQ
- Will a recruiter contact me after I inquire about your selected states?
- Yes—a cardiology recruiter reviews submissions personally. If there are plausible locum opportunities in the states and subspecialty you listed, we will reach out, usually within one business day. If nothing fits, we will say so clearly.
- Are you the hospital employer?
- No. Locum Career Hub is a recruiting service. Your clinical contract would be with the hiring hospital or group if you accept an assignment.
- Can I inquire while licensed elsewhere?
- Requirements vary by assignment. Share current licenses and target dates—we map compact eligibility, full licenses, and realistic privileging timelines.
- How does this page relate to cardiologist tail coverage?
- This page is educational context for cardiologists exploring locum tenens—not individualized medical, legal, or tax advice. Submit an inquiry when you want recruiter-led matching.
- Do you recruit non-cardiologists?
- No. We work with cardiologists only—general, interventional, EP, heart failure, imaging, structural, preventive, and pediatric cardiology.
- Is occurrence always better?
- Often simpler for exits—but availability and cost vary.
- Can tail be negotiated later?
- Harder after you are desperate to leave. Negotiate up front.
