More like, was pursuing multiple jobs at once, got one closer to home, pay differential was not worth the drive time differential, most likely. Oh well. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

surgblumm Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 It's difficult to believe that at the inception of our profession , salaries were 17,000 to 20,000. We've come a long way , baby. In NY, the average salasy for a PA in EM or Urgent Care five years ago was 55-65 dollars per hour. Are salaries changing this much today?

At my last job, the docs got 50% of the rvu on each PA chart they signed, whether or not they saw the pt. If they "saw" the pt (stuck their head in the door for 2 seconds and wrote a brief note) they got 75%. We figured out that the PA group bought each doc in the group a $50,000 car each year and bought them their $600,000 house if they stayed for 20 years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
