Position Overview
You will provide remote professional interpretation and oversight of intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (IONM) during complex surgical cases. The role offers maximum flexibility - we accept either a 1099 independent contractor or employed (W-2) model, whichever best fits your situation.
Key Responsibilities
• Deliver real-time remote interpretation of multimodal IONM data (SSEPs, MEPs, EMG, BAERs, EEG, etc.)
• Provide immediate feedback and alerts to the surgical team, technologist, and anesthesiologist to protect neural structures
• Collaborate closely with operating room staff across multiple facilities
• Maintain timely and accurate documentation of monitoring sessions
Typical Case Mix
• Spine surgeries (cervical, thoracic, and lumbar fusions/decompressions, scoliosis correction, tethered cord release, spinal cord tumor resection)
• Craniotomies (brain tumor resection, aneurysm clipping/repair, AVM resection, Chiari malformation decompression)
• ENT/neurotologic procedures (acoustic neuroma/vestibular schwannoma resection, parotid tumor resection, facial nerve decompression)
• Vascular procedures (carotid endarterectomy)
• Thyroid/parathyroid surgeries (recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring)
• Other neurosurgical, orthopedic, and peripheral nerve procedures
Requirements
Required:
• MD or DO degree from an accredited institution
• Board certified or board eligible in Clinical Neurophysiology (ABPN)
• Active, unrestricted medical license in at least one U.S. state
• Willingness to obtain licensure in approximately 20+ states (all licensing fees and administrative costs fully covered by the employer)
Preferred/Ideal:
• Board eligible or certified in Intraoperative Neuromonitoring (or equivalent IONM-specific training/experience)
• Prior remote or in-house IONM reading experience
What We Offer
• Fully remote position - work from anywhere in the U.S.
• Choice of 1099 or employed compensation model
• Competitive compensation (high earning potential).
• Full coverage of multi-state licensing costs and processing
• Professional liability insurance (as applicable to model)
• Opportunity to join two established, high-volume organizations ( IntraNerve Neuroscience and West Coast Neurology )
