Health Care LawOne of the most prevalent provisions in a physician's employment contract is a restrictive covenant (otherwise known as a covenant not to compete or noncompete agreement).They often set forth proscriptions while employed and post-employment. So, when that physician's employment ends, either with a private office, hospital, health system or other health care facility, he may be limited as to where he may practice.
