The article says he is not "directly employed" by the hospital/health system.
This physician had his own practice and it sounds like they may have had some contract for him to come in, get consults, do surgeries and be reimbursed by insurance.
Also yes his past history is wild. Unfortunate it took so long to have his license revoked. I wonder if MD boards are like RN boards where theres like only 15 people employed for the whole state. Thats how CA was from my recollection 10 years ago.
