    How likely is it to make $375-400k in Psych?

    Southeast. can make that much but will have to see patients and generate wRVU. Had set up where I saw about 25 inpatient a day. NP did notes and I billed. Then saw another 5-10 in ED and medical floors as consults. So about 30-35 a day. But only did the new consults notes myself. Made 575-625 K...

    How much do you make in a year as a psychiatrist?

    54 straight and then 5 for quality metrics by department as a whole. Only did not reach metrics in 2020 I was told. I was not there for COVID. So basically 59. Have seen higher in my area but much worse work environment. So far, so good.

    How much do you make in a year as a psychiatrist?

    when do you use 90792 code?

    I was always taught that if they have been seen by your practice within the last 3 years outpatient you could not do an initial evaluation. However, I have heard others use the 90792 when seeing a new to them patient from a another provider in the practice. I did not do it as I was unaware when...

    PRN inpatient coverage

    The drive is really not an issue to me. I have half days on Friday and can come back Sunday and be home by 8 or 9 pm. More is the pay fair is the question I have. Is that the going rate? etc. I thought it would be more around 4-5K.

    Thoughts on this VA heavy residency program?

    I did about half my training at VA and most of my outpatient months. I found no holes in my outpatient ability with adults. Children I did not see as many outpatient but I am not child anyway and prefer not to see. I found I was allowed more autonomy which greatly helped me when I walked in Day...

    Thoughts on this job?

    OP, that ED job sounds horrible. NO The other deal sounds fair. Either deal. 12 or 24 hour if consults are low overnight and can get some sleep.

    Talkiatry review

    Talked to a similar "program". You make decent pay but likely could make more and leave that dignity at the door with the coat please.

    question about inpatient jobs

    I was all about inpatient but did some outpatient and found it is not a bad thing to be bored. Less variety in the day and have to be set on a schedule and cannot leave early etc. But, I do prefer not having the amount hospital politics and RN managers who obviously have more clinical knowledge...

    Getting a salary number?

    I looked at jobs recently and mostly was able to get salary information from external recruiters. Internal recruiters usually give me a ballpark. I typically will mention if we are not talking over 300 K then we should just stop now.
