Policy
on moonlighting.
The clinical cardiac electrophysiology training program has adopted the
moonlighting policy of the Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center Graduate Medical
Education (GME) office. This policy is contained in the "Red Book," the policies
and procedures manual given to all residents. The policy on
moonlighting is reproduced below.
Moonlighting Policy
Approved by the GMEAC December 6, 2004
For purposes of this document the term resident will be used for residents and
fellows. The term moonlighting means to work for pay outside the requirements and
stipend of the
DHMC residents and fellows only.
General
1. Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center neither encourages nor discourages
moonlighting.
2. The resident must have a permanent license to practice medicine in each state
where he/she moonlights. A permanent license is different from a training
license.
3. The resident must obtain permission to moonlight from Graduate Medical
Education and his/her Program Director.
4. Graduate Medical Education and the resident's Program Director must
determine that a moonlighting or locum tenens position does not conflict with
assigned duties and responsibilities within the training program.
5. The resident's Program Director must sign the Moonlighting Request Form for
each moonlighting assignment and may restrict moonlighting based upon
training program considerations.
