If a physician works for a hospital they are employers only in the same sense that a middle manager in industry is an employer. The physician in this case likely does not make hiring or firing decisions or decide to add a position, that is decided up the chain. So they don't need incentives for job creation in their primary job as they don't create any jobs.
