Slot Application

A “slot” is an ophthalmology residency or fellowship training position.  Coverage applies to the position rather than to the individuals who occupy the slot. If an ophthalmologist leaves the position, another ophthalmologist may fill the slot. Only one ophthalmologist at a time can fill a slot.

Due to state patient compensation/excess liability fund prohibitions on the sharing of liability limits, slot coverage is not available in Kansas, Nebraska, or Wisconsin.
