Hi,
I have some questions about physician compensation (money is not my primary motivation--I am just curious).
While surfing some recruiter websites, I noticed that some ads listed "loan forgiveness" as one of the benefits. Given that the average med student graduates with a debt of $100,000+, I view this as an extremely generous benefit. Does anyone know exactly how this works? Are your loans paid off in one lump sum? Is this standard in certain specialties??
Also, some ads listed "base salary + production." Can anyone explain what "production" is? Is it a bonus for bringing in new patients?
Thanks
