A practical list of the compensation, call, tail, noncompete, and repayment terms residents and fellows should identify before signing.

OfferLens MD will send the checklist and may send relevant product updates. You can reply to opt out.

Is this useful if I have never reviewed a contract before?

Yes. The workflow is built to show the major categories that often matter in a first attending contract, then convert them into a structured review packet.

Can I compare two attending offers?

Yes. Pro users can save offers and compare selected terms, projected value, and risk items side by side.

01

First-contract priorities

Early-career physicians can organize salary, sign-on bonus, relocation, CME, PTO, benefits, call, repayment terms, and guarantee duration in one place.

02

Hidden exposure

The workflow highlights tail coverage, signing-bonus clawbacks, relocation repayment, noncompete scope, unclear call obligations, and unilateral compensation changes.

03

Specialty context

Residents and fellows can select specialty, region, state, employment model, and workload assumptions so the review reflects the offer being considered.

04

Negotiation questions

The output converts unclear or unfavorable terms into practical questions for the employer, program mentors, advisors, and counsel.

05

Compare options

Saved workflows can help compare competing offers by cash value, hourly value, call burden, tail exposure, and risk flags.

06

Professional boundaries

OfferLens MD helps prepare for decision-making and attorney review. It is not legal, tax, financial, or career advice.
