PsyDr - are you making the case non-competes are unenforceable across the board? Or just in contexts like UCCs with special/captive populations where non-competes aren't likely to exist?
Most every AMC I'm aware of has people sign a non-compete (at least if they will be practicing clinically). Enforcement obviously varies, but I've certainly seen legal action threatened against folks with an unsanctioned PP. I realize non-competes are a legal quagmire, but if it was as settled as "They legally have to allow it" I'm doubtful institutions would still bother with them...
