You will have access to three retirement plan options: 401(k), 403(b), and 457(b). Because Ochsner is a nonprofit organization, the 457(b) plan gives you an additional tax-advantaged savings option beyond standard 401(k) and 403(b) limits.
Ochsner provides occurrence-based malpractice coverage. An occurrence policy covers claims tied to care you provided while employed, even if a claim is filed after you leave, so you do not need to purchase tail coverage.
