Travel Assignments

Travel assignment is defined as a Professional being further than 100 miles from their permanent residence to provide services.

Based on the pre-scheduled shifts, an expected number of hours per week (36, 40 , etc) will be expected to be paid to the Professional and billed to the Customer if the Professional is willing and able to render the services. If the Professional and CUstomer agree to modify the schedule for the Professional to take time off then the pre-scheduled shifts / expected hours will not be paid or billed.

There will be a charge of 20% of the time requested if Customer cancels within 14 days prior to the start of the scheduled shifts. In the event of cancellation, Customer will be responsible for any non-refundable travel and lodging expenses UNLESS MCS is given the opportunity to provide a replacement for the duration of the existing contract. In the event that the Professional is released due to incompetence, unmanageability, or refusal to comply with Customer's policies and/or practices, Customer agrees to provide written documentation to PRNPool.com describing the cause for termination. It is also agreed that Customer will provide two weeks advance written notice to PRNPool.com and the Professional in the event that permanent staff is hired prior to the end date of this contract.

Extreme circumstances, such as death in the family, sudden illness or any other emergency will render this contract null and void. PRNPool.com will make every attempt to find a replacement professional should such an emergency occur, but PRNPool.com cannot and will not guarantee such a replacement.

The Professional profiled under the terms of this contract is not a MCS employee, but a subcontracted individual on assignment to the Customer, however PRNPool.com is responsible for all wages due to the Professional.

PRNPool.com shall provide professional and general liability insurance coverage for the healthcare Professional providing services to Customer.

PRNPool.com is an equal opportunity employer and prohibits job discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.

Both parties agree to indemnify and hold harmless each other, its officers, agents, directors, trustees and employees from all claims and liabilities (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses incurred in the defense thereof) relating to any property damage, personal injuries or death arising out of the act or omissions in connection with the duties and services of each party or its contractors or employees provided under this agreement.
