It's commonly known that PP has a higher average salary than other areas of medicine, but I recently came across this article that quoted some huge paychecks for top physicians at Maimonides medical center (3.5 million for chief of heart surgery) and I have heard anecdotally that many hospitals have similar heavy hitters, even prestigious academic hospitals which typically pay the lowest. Does employed medicine have a higher pay ceiling? I imagine it would be impossible to hit 3.5 million based on RVU
