Need for Employee Contracts

Question: Our clinical nurse specialist is changing from working as a contractor to an employee. Do I need to use a written agreement or is our verbal agreement enough?
Answer: I suggest you use a written contract. If things go south, everyone will remember his own version of the verbal agreement. Download a sample physician employment agreement from the AMA Web site; you can adapt the language to suit your particular needs.
Be sure to cover these key issues:
- compensation;
- schedule;
- call schedule; and
- dissolving the relationship.
