For those residency programs out there with moonlighting, what is the pay structure? How much do you get paid to hold the pager and how much do you get paid to come in? Thanks!!
Is this UAB?$70/hr after 3pm starting CA-1 yr. 5 residents per day, released on a staggered schedule until cases are done. Also beeper liver and critical care transport at the same rate.
Thats a pretty sweet deal$70/hr after 3pm starting CA-1 yr. 5 residents per day, released on a staggered schedule until cases are done. Also beeper liver and critical care transport at the same rate.
That's what people will work for. If people won't work for those rates, the rates will go up. Supply vs demand.why does anesthesia tend to pay lower moonlighting rates relative to EM (200-300/hr), FM ( 100ish/hr), or psych moonlighting rates?

After finishing internship I would locum for $300/hr as basically an intern in ED. Was absolutely ridiculous, but that's what the demand was.

Different in Australia I assume. Personally I found it very enjoyable and extremely well paid.I didnt know you could moonlight in the ED as an anesthesia resident! Interesting to know.
The 45 bucks an hour that’s not internal moonlighting sounds terrible.Can moonlight in ICU for $100/hr.
Or carry pager for a small nearby hospital on weekend. $5/hr for weekend and then $45/hr if you get called in for a case, which is usually a Lap Chole or Appy cause any big stuff goes to the mothership
The program I matched to "doesn't allow moonlighting" even though all of the CA-3's do it and were open about it. It was external and 2 of them found sweet gigs at a low key urgent care that paid $125 an hour to send anything serious down the road to the ED.
Hoping these opportunities are still there for me when the time comes because I just got my total student loan debt number from my mortgage application and holy ****.
We aren’t like the rest of the world. Haven’t you heard?I'm surprised there isn't more interaction with anesthesia in the ED here... Boggles my mind actually.
Why pay an EM resident $200/hr when you can get a PA or NP to staff that shift for $50/hr.
