So as the title says it, I have a question about tail.
I worked with a group - first job out of residency - and then left for a fellowship. During fellowship I covered call for the group here and there. Since I no longer cover for the original group and am a med director at a different place, and have officially concluded all duties, I need to get tail. I don't have a copy of the contract, but I was told that the contract I signed says 4 years of tail - seems kinda long? Also because I was working part time at best - covering weekends and night call, I'm thinking it's mostly a part time coverage not full coverage. I was told by a company I talked to that they can give me about a 30% off from the price of the original quote - the thing is I have asked the original group how much they paid and they haven't told me. I. have asked a number of times. I am not sure what to do? I also don't understand why they are not telling me how much they paid.
What to do in this situation? Also what happens if one decides to simply go tail less? I mean the full time work with this group was years ago so any statue of limitation is done and the call - well I don't see how that could really bring issues.
Any thoughts? What happens if one decides to not get tail? Can the group sue you? Can I sign a waiver of some sort?
