1.7.3 Hours of operation: ON-CALL. The estimated total number of on-call shifts is five (5) 24-hour periods per month or as deemed necessary by MTF Medical Chief. The Government will prepare specific schedules at least four weeks in advance. However, unforeseen circumstances (IAW 1.7.4.1 below) may not allow for advanced scheduling, and the HCP shall provide coverage not to exceed 55 days per year. When on duty, the HCP shall provide pediatric surgeon on-call coverage. The HCP shall function as the primary attending for all MTF pediatric surgery in-patients. The HCPs shall manage and care for these patients and provide oversight to the pediatric surgery patients.

HCP shall make verbal contact on patient status with the government-designated representative by 0600 Monday morning. THE GOVERNMENT WILL ONLY PAY FOR DAYS WHEN COVERAGE IS PROVIDED.

When on duty, the HCP shall be available to provide pediatric surgeon services on an on-call/call back basis, answering telephone questions and reporting to the MTF. When Government personnel have planned absences or are subject to mobilization and deployment, the HCP shall be available to provide on-call coverage with prior notice and agreement of schedules.
