ID salary jumps 22% (Medscape)?

[Handsome88]

Medscape physician compensation 2015 is out. What do you think about this? Is this just a sampling error or is it true that ID salaries are increasing that much? That's a big jump and I'm interested to know why.

Has to be sampling error. They have such small sample sizes it's really hard to generalize from that.

Everyone on ID bandwagon now!

Sample error, two years in a row? Salary didn't change last year from this year. I think it is true.

These medscape surveys are straight up trash. Funny that anyone takes them seriously...

I suspect < 5 ID physicians completed this survey
