Salary Negotiation

[PACShrink]

Fellow Psychiatry PAs;

   I am rapidly approaching my 1 year mark with an outpatient psychiatry practice. I am looking for any input anyone has to offer WRT salary, bonus, contract terms etc.

I graduated approximately 1 year ago and I have only had this one job since. I recently changed my schedule from 5 days a week at 8 Hours per to 4 days at 10 hours per. On average I see XX patients per week. Currently my salary is competitive and we do get some benefits. We get 15 vacation days for year 1 then 20 per year, 5 sick days, 6 federal holidays, 5 CME days and $3,000. There is a bonus structure, it is a % for collections over 200K. I am not certain what this will amount to as I have not seen what my collections are.

   I plan on asking for access to the billing data.

The practice has 4 MDs 3 total PAs and around 15 LCSWs, Psychologists and LPCs.

 

Any input would be greatly appreciated.
