These pediatrics
salary results are provided for different medical and surgical
specialties based on surveys of physicians in different medical
specialities, and are publically available on the web (see the
Physicians Search website). This information can be used in several
ways, specifically in evaluating different physician
job possibilities. In particular, pediatrician salaries vary
substantially by work environment, group or solo practice, subspecialty
and compensation plan.
First, locum
tenens positions will often set base pay scale on the
national average income. The pay can be adjusted by local cost-of-living
difference from the national average. Regional variations in compensation
for pediatric physicians can be substantial.
In evaluating a physician job offer it is important to know the
average pay for a given specialty. Independent of locum tenens
positions, the national average of physician salaries in different
specialties is often used as a target: a physician who generates
the average patient income for the specialty receives the average
. Bonuses are often pegged to the amount of income generated above
the average.
The average physician salary for an internist (see Internal
Medicine Survey) can be used as a benchmark for comparison
with other medical specialities.
Information about other medical
jobs and nursing
jobs is available.
