155.991 Restrictive Covenants
The Medical Society of the State of New York will support legislation that prohibits a “restrictive covenant” provision in a health system-physician employment contract or in a contract between a Management Services Organization (MSO) and a physician that limits the ability of such physician to deliver care in the same region after the physician leaves employment from such health system or leaves the medical practice that utilizes that MSO.
The Medical Society of the State of New York will conduct a survey of physicians to assess their support or opposition to legislation to prohibit all restrictive covenants. (HOD 2020-54 and 55, referred to Council, adopted 11/5/20, reaffirmed Council 1/26/23)
