Hey all,
I'm working on transitioning back to primary care after 2-3 years of adult hospitalist work after residency. I'm a little out of touch with key things to look for (or avoid) in primary care jobs and was hoping to get some feedback; I'm seeking 4-4.5 day work week no ob +/- peds. I'm shooting for compensation in range of 275k-300k on 20-25 patients per day plus retention/sign on/student loan repayment in the Midwest. Is this realistic?
My list of things to look into so far:
-staffing: RN, MA ratio to MD
-NP/PA supervision expectations
-telemedicine policies/volume
-mychart message policies
-expected patient volume: how many total in a day, how much time for new patients vs follow ups vs hospital discharge
-controlled substance policies
-expected/encouraged office procedures
-pay structure: salary guarantee and rvu bonus, retention, student loan and sign on bonuses
-CME
-PTO
-Call schedule
-Malpractice coverage with tail
Anything I'm missing? Anything I'm over emphasizing?
Appreciate any help!
