These 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.
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.
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.
