The Chiropractic Independent Contractor Agreement is essential for healthcare facilities and individual chiropractors in Malaysia seeking to establish a clear professional relationship outside of traditional employment. This document is used when a qualified chiropractor provides services at a healthcare facility while maintaining their independent status. It ensures compliance with Malaysian healthcare regulations, including the Private Healthcare Facilities and Services Act 1998 and Traditional and Complementary Medicine Act 2016, while addressing crucial aspects such as service delivery, compensation, professional standards, and liability protection. The agreement is particularly relevant in the growing Malaysian healthcare sector where flexible professional arrangements are increasingly common, and regulatory compliance is strictly enforced.
