Good for them! Hard work and further training should be rewarded.

The CRNAs could get overtime where i used to work (docs not) and they belonged to a very strong nurses union (again not for docs). it really can be lucrative.

The nursing union is strong and politically active.

I'm not against CRNAs, NPs, PAs being paid well. I'm against MDs/DOs being paid less.

How did you do it differently when you were an anesthesiologist?

I wouldnt say that... what they are doing is taking the responsibility when a complication occurs and someone needs to be crucified...

I know you’re right on that. Just sayin I ain’t hating on a 200k salary for that amount of work in my hospital

When I ran the rooms, I would MUCH rather be in the room doing a case than trying to direct 4 CRNAs. I ran my ass off.

I also agree that CRNAs get paid too much in general for what they do. As anyone who has done anesthesia residency will tell you, there is a HUGE difference between having attending backup and BEING the backup.

Yes, there are lazy docs out there giving us all a bad name, they are the ones who caused this whole CRNA SNAFU.
