erpa2003 Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Hey guys, has anyone every seen hourly rates of 100hr + ?? I have but they were only locums positions. If so what was the specialty? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joelseff Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 I know of some salaried jobs that calculated for actual hours worked equates to over 100/hr. I have not seen advertised 100+/hr. The locums jobs I've looked into had 100+/hr but that was with shift diff, bonus and overtime.

Administrator rev ronin Posted August 22, 2019 Administrator Share Posted August 22, 2019 The fewer hours a week, the higher the likelihood of getting ridiculously high per-hour pay. $100 per hour is not unreasonable for a part time 1099 position in a niche specialty, but I've never seen a W-2 position that paid that plus benefits for a full-time job.

I know of a job where the PA works 6 pt hours (7 total) 4 days a week with a day off/admin day every week (so it is considered a FT position) and with the salary alone the calculated per hour rate is over 100/hr and it is a W2. Including bennies and bonus structure it's much higher. Too bad they already found a PA to fill it [emoji12] Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dphy83 Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Have a friend who works nights in EM in Texas at 100/hr (at large hospital). They're out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDayBFL Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Yes, I see Neurosurgery positions at $80-110/hr frequently. You must have the skill set and experience. These aren’t “new grad” type positions as they don’t have the time to train. You hit the ground running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joelseff Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 I will Re-iterate what ppl posted above. Jobs at this pay rate are rare, if not non existent for new grads. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexapro Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I have a 1099 position that pays $150/hr. I only work there a few times a month though, since the setting (emergency psych) is not my favorite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol nope. he is connected in the region and has held those positions for almost 20 years. it is a sweet gig. he shows up and says I am available for the next 3 hrs. anyone need to be seen? no, I'm leaving. phone call either involves call 911 or I will see them tomorrow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator ventana Posted August 30, 2019 Moderator Share Posted August 30, 2019 I was at $120/hr at last job in corrections Call 4-15 calls per day My boss was a total jerk (attorney and thought he knew it all) I left...... I am going to solicit some contract work and I am asking ~$110/hour as a contract - (no additional expenses to the company but I have my own company) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMann Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 I work solo coverage rural EM in Iowa at a few places. My primary job is W-2, 0.6 FTE, and I get $102/hr for that. Also get free cell, state pension, benefits, CME etc. Only caveat is that I work overnight most Sat/Sun nights, 12hr shifts. That rate is an anomaly for this region I believe. My other jobs pay ~$25/hr less with minimal benefits. Other, slower shop I work at is $70/hr W-2 with 24hr shifts. Third shop is $75 or $77/hr. I forget because I don't work there as much. It's W-2 as well. Like others have said though, none of the jobs I have are for new grads. Minimum would be significant previous EMS/EM experience, but most likely needs residency training like I had or years experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightspeed Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 (edited) Despite potential pitfalls, salary can be a sword that cuts both ways. If your office doesn’t work nights, weekends, holidays, after (say) 5PM, or have any mechanism in place for anyone to be on call, then sometimes you benefit from getting paid for more than you work. Call isn’t my thing. Not having it has driven that home for me. Don’t care how easy it is, or how rare it’s utilized, or even how much it pays (it’s never enough). The gigs that pay $48k per year are rare enough that I’ll never get them, and the lower they pay, the bigger the struggle to decide when the turning point is where I feel comfortable being a glutton for punishment. It offends me that I’ll gladly be someone’s call prostitute for $28,000 per year, but not $20,000. So I avoided the whole struggle and looked for jobs that didn’t force me to play “would you ever”. In psyche, I’m seeing 1099 work above $120/hr. $100/hr is really the minimum anyone will even entertain, if posts on social media groups are to be believed. W-2 would be great at that rate, but I’ve not personally seen offer that high in that classification. However, my NP friends working on their own.... there are some crazy numbers there. Had an acquaintance inquire if I wanted to come onboard. Problem was that before deciding to expand, we had a conversation where I got the gist of how much they were making. Fast forward, and it made to easy to calculate how much they wouldn’t be paying me, and keeping instead. Came out to enough that it was clear that before I’d be signing in for something like that, I’d just go out and start my own practice. But then I’d essentially have two or three jobs, so that takes all the appeal back out of that again.

jmedic12 Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 W2 ED jobs in Phoenix average $100 an hour. I work FT W2 and make $110 an hour in ED ($100 base and $10 night differential). Starting pay for practices like Envision and Teamhealth in Phoenix for ED are $90-95 an hour and often include RVUs and night differentials. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
