Job description

ED Physician Opportunity — Hampton VAMC

$255–$370/hr | 1099 Contract | Flexible Block Scheduling

Serve Veterans • No RVU Pressure • No Billing • Hampton Roads, VA

About this opportunity: Essential HealthCare Solutions (EHS) is pursuing a federal staffing contract to provide Emergency Department coverage at the Hampton VA Medical Center. We are building our clinical bench in advance of contract award. Interested physicians are encouraged to express interest now — placement is contingent on contract award.

Want to talk first? Call or text Patricia Hughes at 901-846-2990 — or email patricia.hughes@essentialhcsolutions. A 15-minute conversation, no formal submission required.

The Opportunity

EHS is pursuing a contract to provide board-certified or board-eligible Emergency Medicine physician coverage at the Hampton VA Medical Center in Hampton, Virginia.

This is a 1099 contract opportunity designed for physicians who want clinical autonomy, predictable patients, and a real personal life — without the productivity targets, billing headaches, and patient-satisfaction-scoring pressures of community ED contracts.

What makes this opportunity different

  • Veteran patient population. Largely stable, established patients with continuity in the VA system. Lower walk-in trauma volume than a typical community ED.
  • No RVUs, no billing. Federal facility — you practice medicine, not coding. No charge capture, no denials, no patient collections.
  • Flexible block scheduling. Commit to the shifts that fit your life. Great for physicians supplementing a primary position or transitioning out of full-time employment.
  • Mission-driven. Caring for U.S. Veterans — a patient population that is often deeply appreciative of the care they receive.
  • Hampton Roads lifestyle. Coastal Virginia: beaches, low cost of living, military-friendly community, easy access to Norfolk, Virginia Beach, Williamsburg, and the Outer Banks.

    Compensation

  • $225–$300 per hour, 1099 contracted, commensurate with experience, credentials, and final contract funding.
  • Paid per shift — no productivity clawbacks.
  • Malpractice and credentialing support provided through EHS.

Schedule & Practice Environment

  • Shift length: 8 / 10 / 12 hour options |

Who We Are Seeking

  • MD or DO from an accredited institution
  • Board Certified or Board Eligible in Emergency Medicine (ABEM or AOBEM)
  • Current, unrestricted U.S. medical license (any state or territory)
  • Current DEA registration; BLS, ACLS, and PALS certifications
  • U.S. citizenship (required for VA facilities)
  • Eligibility for VA credentialing and privileging

Prior VA, military, or federal facility experience a plus — not required

Scope of Services

  • Provide comprehensive emergency care to Veteran patients
  • Perform medical screening exams, stabilize critical patients, and manage the full scope of ED procedures
  • Order and interpret diagnostic studies; coordinate admissions, transfers, and consults
  • Document in the VA EHR (CPRS / Oracle Health)
  • Collaborate with the interdisciplinary ED team and meet ACEP-aligned clinical standards

Express Interest — A 15-Minute Call
