Frequently asked questions about becoming a locum specialist.
Contracts with hospitals vary wildly, from a few weeks to many months (or longer) for the following modalities:
- Sonography
- MRI / CT / MRT
- Nuclear Medicine
- Mammographer
When you sign a contract with ProMed, you are not actually committing to a specific number of weeks. We will send out emails that align with a Technologists’ modality, skill set, etc with dates that require coverage, and then work with you and your schedule to try and find something that accommodates everyone.
We typically ask for a minimum of two weeks in a row for a locum, due to travel expenses. In some scenarios, we will look at less than a two-week commitment.
We usually have a minimum of 8hrs paid ( 8.5hrs worked) per day. Occasionally, we can arrange for longer days, as long as all parties agree to it and the facility has support staff available to facilitate outside the regular hours.
At ProMed, we do not require that you work longer days, but many individuals find it in their best interest to maximize their time on site.
We pay hourly. We feel that paying by the number of patients scanned is unsafe for both the technologist and the patient.
ProMed HR Solutions requires that all Technologists carry their own Liability Insurance. This can be purchased through the Governing body or through your own insurance broker.
This insurance is mandatory and we cannot send out a technologist who does not have their own liability insurance.
Funds are directly deposited into your bank account.
As a contractor with ProMed you are considered self-employed and you will receive all your income for each locum worked without GST, income taxes, ACC levies or Kiwisaver contributions being withheld.
You may be able to deduct other business expenses against this income but will need to consult with your own accountant to plan for your taxes accordingly including tax installments. If you have direct client-approved expenses on a locum this is not considered income as you will get reimbursed for these expenses.
As noted above, we don’t provide benefits as most Technologists already have benefits through other institutions. This allows us to pay you the full hourly rate.
You will be required to submit an invoice detailing the number of hours worked to ProMed HR Solutions. Payment will be direct deposited into your bank account.
