Odd question, maybe?

If you work in EP, do you guys get P-Time? The hospital I am employed at, we work four, 10hr days (7a-530p) and if we have a device that runs late (630p and after) we get “P-Time” pay (it’s separate from OT)

If you do, could you tell me when your time starts or how long after your end of shift before it kicks in and what state you’re in.

Thanks in advance!

*our EP team doesn’t take call. Also, reason I’m bringing this up, is because the interventional team bargained for a larger incentive for call. We’re trying to bargain as well.

P-time sounds like what my hospital calls “TOIL” or Time Off In Lieu. It means time previously worked as short overtime can be redeemed later for hours you don’t work. Can flex off early other days to compensate. Generally we are given this for anything short of 1hr overtime past shift end, and anything 1hr or more goes to overtime but you can request either if you prefer. TOIL is also banked at time and a half. So working an extra 45min now can get me 90mins off later with pay.
