laravel - Polymorphic relations between three models

Question

I just can't figure out how to solve this problem:

I got different models like this:

• Doctor
• Patient
• Insurance

Now each of these Models should be linkable by a Contract.

So for example:

• The Doctor also has a Contract with the Patient. (with some data like date-fields , ...).
• The Patient has a Contract with the Doctor (with some data like date-fields , ...).
• The Patient has a Contract with the Insurance (with some data like date-fields , ...).

So I guess I'd create a relation like morphMany for all the models. The Contract morphsTo the contractable.

But I am not sure how to specify the "link" between the models. The Contract-table would need to save the id and the type of the morphed model - but how would I store the "target" model?
