Contract Psychiatry: General Job in Seattle, Washington

This position is offered as a contract opportunity, meaning you would be engaged as an independent contractor rather than a direct employee. Contract arrangements are typically structured around a defined agreement covering term, schedule, and rate, with 1099 tax treatment and independent handling of benefits, retirement, and malpractice terms as specified in the agreement. In exchange for fewer employer-provided benefits, this structure often offers greater flexibility.

This general psychiatry role is based in Seattle, Washington, and is also listed under a number of other practice structures — including solo, group, employed, academic, virtual, part-time, and administrative arrangements — so the contract option described here is one of several ways this opportunity can be structured. The financial offering for this listing is noted as the National Average tier, and the position carries no emergency department call.

Candidates who are board certified or board eligible are considered, and both allopathic and osteopathic training backgrounds, as well as American and foreign medical graduates, are accepted. Physicians across experience levels — from those currently in training to very experienced practitioners — and a range of work statuses, including visa holders, may be considered for this role.
