Moonlighting

Upon approval and following institutional and program guidelines, resident physicians beyond their second year of training may moonlight providing they obtain the appropriate permanent State Medical License. With proper authorization, malpractice insurance provided by Creighton University covers residents moonlighting in the State of Nebraska.

Moonlighting outside the State of Nebraska is permissible providing proper authorization is obtained. The resident physician is responsible for obtaining their own liability coverage for moonlighting performed outside the State of Nebraska. All moonlighting hours are to be logged as part of program duty hours. Moonlighting is subject to approval by the Clinical Core Competency committee.

Residents/fellows with J1 visas are prohibited from moonlighting. Residents may not moonlight while on sick leave or while on FMLA.

Resident physicians are not required to moonlight.
