Who pays more?

[JustPassing]

Would it be more or less likely for a physician who has his own clinic ( and he is the only provider) to pay more than a large group or hospital?

 

I know there are many things to take into consideration, but generally speaking?

I don't have the direct answer to your question but the one concern that I would have with the former option would be loss of the provider, thus the loss of employment, as opposed to a group employment.  Consider factoring in the cost of a term-life policy for maybe one years' income as part of the pay package?

Typically, Large group > Hospital > single MD/DO practice owner.

 

It's specialty dependent. For instance, a private neurosurgeon most likely to offer more than one would get paid at a larger academic Ctr or Hospital or IM/FM w/ multiple providers.

 

You've got to look at the entire package and not just base $.

bennies and pay are usually better at large hospitals where you are just another number...... but you have to put up with corp world...

In my exp. Bennies are better at larger hospital. However, the pay are not that great; usually below market rate.

Bennies plus the Benjamins...... I see ;) ( couldn't resist)

 

Sounds to me like a pretty nice schedule mainly focused on jumping between 2 maybe 3 hospitals for new pt consults. But I could def see where I could get shorted with benefits. 

 

Anyone know how it would work/benefit, me or my employer, to have employer pay directly toward student loans ( avoid payroll tax) vs me paying?
