Compensation and Benefits Fellows receive health insurance and an annual trainee stipend that increases with each year of fellowship training. Beginning in the second year, trainees are asked to take 12 nights of in-house call outside their area of speciality training. This clinical service is not associated with our fellowship training programs. To compensate for in-house night call, fellows are appointed to UT Southwestern salaried faculty positions as part-time Assistant Instructors. To be eligible for night-call supplementation, fellows must have a Texas Medical License, DEA, and DPS certificates and be credentialed with our hospitals and manage care organizations. A permanent Texas medical license is required to begin the credentialing process. Texas Medical License Licensure in Texas is a lengthy process, and first-year fellows are urged to make application early. The Texas Medical Board (TMB) now accepts applications on-line. Their website is http://www.tmb.state.tx.us. See also Getting Your Texas Medical License. Personal Time Off At the discretion of the fellowship program director, ABOG fellows may take up to two weeks of personal time off each fellowship year. Personal time off may be used for personal business (such as job interviews), leisure, or for health reasons.
Fellowship program directors may also grant fellows additional time off for special circumstances, such as job interviews or unexpected health problems. This time is granted on a case-by-case basis, and the final decision rests with the program director. Please note: Any time off in excess of ABOG guidelines will result in extension of the fellowship training period.
All personal time off must be approved by the program director and coverage by other clinical fellows must be obtained.
Fellows are urged to contact their fellowship program director immediately if they become ill and to obtain approval for all other time off well in advance.
