Will be a PGY2 in PM&R this upcoming year in a large east coast city. Has anyone had experience moonlighting during their PGY2-4 years? What are some options available? Please advise
1. Need approval from PD. Do not pass go if you don't get this.
2. Need opportunities. This seems to be the largest barrier. As @j4pac said, ask other residents.
3. Need your own malpractice insurance and license.

Yep. And it's very likely that the malpractice costs might not be worth the squeeze of what one gets paid. We had some residents in our program moonlight. One did coverage for SNF, another one did notes for the SCI service, one did coverage for the inpt rehab unit, etc. Not a ton of money though
maybe the rules have changed, but there was pretty much no place that would hire or could hire residents to moonlight that were not in their last year. I remember visiting one program that had moonlighting in house and pgy3 could also do it, but nothing outside of the program below pgy4.
