The hospital doesn't employ me. They pay my group to cover call for them, but we are legally an entirely separate entity from the hospital. And, as long as whoever you want to do your anesthesia has privileges at that hospital, you can use them. We're not the only ones who can work there; we're just the ones who have to take any case any surgeon who has privileges wants to do. (This creates its own set of headaches; there was an ENT surgeon who did all of his quick, easy, and profitable ear tubes and tonsils with a different anesthesia group in town, but if the tonsil bled at night, he would call us to do the much-worse-paying and unscheduled surgery to stop the bleeding.)
