If a fully ABFAS qualified pod takes such a job - can they even get fully certified with just pus bus procedures? If not, what a waste of time for that applicant pod, they can do better - and maybe will once they get experience and get out of there when a new better job comes around

If a fully ABFAS certified pod takes such a job - imagine being capable enough to do rearfoot procedures but being limited to only driving the pus bus which 90% of all pods can do (ABFAS, ABPM, whatever). What a waste of talent and time/effort for that applicant pod, they can do better - and absolutely should since there's more money to gain from offering more services

Fellowship is basically a year of officially documented training - if nothing else, I guess that counts for better work experience than being a PP slave

I don't know what actual job responsibilities the job in question has for the pod - the listing doesn't really say. But IF this job is a regular old pus bus job that *requires* ABFAS qual/cert and a fellowship, that's just a lot of stupid going around. Stupid for the applicant (see above). Stupid on the job posting hospital for not doing their research. Stupid on any pod(s) already at that hospital demanding a specific board and fellowship if the patient load doesn't support it. Then again, podiatry is stupid so what did I expect
I can’t speak to that posting directly either but hospital jobs are not all created equal. Don’t forget there’s entire limb salvage departments at some major university hospitals. I have no interest in that side of this profession and thus wouldn’t apply to those but you could see where a position like that might say fellowship trained, because limb salvage fellowships do exist. I think it depends where you’re at in your career too and what you want out of it. Preferred isn’t required either. I think we give hospital admin too much credit for how much (little) they know about podiatry and schooling/residency too.

I don’t advocate one way or another for fellowship. There’s good ones and bad ones. I have friends and coresidents that did the good ones and jobs after have been mixed.

Real drivers of the pus bus know you use all your elective recon knowledge. It's IM nails, tendon transfers , flaps, frames

All you people are idiots if you think it's first year toe amps.

It pays better than trauma. It is challenging. It is rewarding.

And guess what. If it fails you tried.....tell that to Mrs Jones about her TAR.

Most of us pods making 500k plus.....lots of pus

If I had the volume for all pus...sign me up. @DYK343 and @retrogradenail know whats up

Quit listening to @Feli and his BS about how it's first year stuff.
 
I am ABFAS qualified in both foot and rearfoot and I thought that would help, but didn't! I just ended up taking a PP job and said fck it. Funny thing is the moment I took that job, a hospital wanted to interview me. Of course I didn't respond but it makes me sooo mad because I rejected lots of decent PP offers hoping a hospital will come through. I decided I am gonna see what my current job takes me then hopefully a VA will open up or I can have the courage to start on my own afterwards. I hate podiatry, I wish I did something else.
You should have dropped everything for that hospital interview. We all know where that PP job is taking you.

Yes, you have to get into the hospital jobs circuit asap if that's what you want. Take any hospital job that you can. Go anywhere... can always go to better place/pay eventually.

It's much easier to do it right away that to sit in PP (even if you get Abfas cert eventually). Your app won't have the hospital exp on it, and we all know how many hundreds of apps any decent hospital podiatry job gets if it's advertised public.

Keep in mind you are trying to do something maybe only 20% of podiatrists do (many can't get a hospital job, many won't be flexible on location, many are totally unqualified, and some just don't want the hours/call/etc that comes with it).

Pus is fine, and it can't be avoided. We are podiatrists... the wounds will find us.
I just say don't encourage it. You will get enough of it by accident, it's depressing stank work, and it doesn't pay well if you are collections-based (300+ pounders and drug addicts seldom have great insurance). We all do that work, but I'm sure not begging ERs or PCPs to send more abscess and Charcot to me. 😛

The only DPMs I know who can manage to [sometimes] wiggle out of the DM/wound stuff have other podiatrists in their group to dump it on (associates, junior hospital FTE podiatrists, whoever). It's expected in nearly any DPM job situ, even ortho group hires. In a lot of hospital jobs, it's nearly all you do (but yes, you can find some recon among the wounds also).

This.
An interview is just an interview, but I think you should have found a way to go. I didn't make $150K as a podiatrist until my 3rd year of practice. I didn't make $250K until somewhere years into partnership. I wasn't able to partner without paying $90K. And I wasn't able to leave my failing partnership without taking a $20K haircut on my equity. Explaining the finances of my new practice is complicated because I own both the real estate and the practice, but its already over a 6-figure investment with more to come. I think when the pieces fall into place it will work, but its a journey. None of that is needed in a hospital job. They currently exist under the greatest, most terrible cheat code in the world - facility fees. Literally - this country is destroying itself overpaying hospitals and sucking up premiums and Medicare money to the detriment of everything else. Get a hospital job and the money just flows. You can be a totally ordinary podiatist doing totally boring, ordinary work, and somehow its just worth a fortune. The exact same work done as a private practice above will produce jack. Join a private practice and and you'll be wasting your time and life like I do - trying to find some sort of magic code that you've been missing out on, trying to keep Eclinical works from scamming, reading about credit card interchange fees, and trying to find cheap VOIP phone service. Infinitely more stupid work for much less money.

Ehh, Kind of. I dont get the facility fee. But thats what keeps me employed.

On RVU Lobster work alone doesnt pay well.

Nails are worth 0.51 wRVU. Which national average ~$50 per RVU isaround $25 - not that great for a 10-15min appointment. Especially with W2 taxes.

Calluses tiered 0.34, 0.4, 0.63 wRVU. Again not great.

Only way lobster work is profitable on wRVU is if they have a seperate E&M to attach. Which I practice in a non-affluent area so almost every 11721 has something else they want to talk about. In this situation its quite profitable so I dont mind my nail care patients because its easy production.

99213 1.3
99214 1.92 - THIS
99203 1.6
99204 2.6 - THIS

Level 4s are much easier to get to than private. We have so much more information available. Xray and lab right outside my door. ER note to review, Etc.. Most diabetic wound patients qualify for a 992x4 + Wound debridement. Thats where I get a lot of production. I dont see this as being easy in private practice.
 
I dont see this as being easy in private practice.

In PP defense, it is easy to both bill and collect on a level 4 compared to an employed doc with a coder scrubbing and submitting a claim for you. Especially in DYK’s case. Heck, even I had an issue with coders recently not coding the e/m and closed fracture care (with 57 modifier) because of some BS thinking about the ED already having seen them for the fracture (but providing no definitive care). In PP I’m making it rain on all closed fractures, a hospital employed doc rarely has control over what is actually being submitted on the 1500 form.

But yes, the ease of accessing imaging and labs for every visit (and using in MDM when relevant. Or when not relevant as air bud does often times), is significantly greater in the employed hospital setting.

The ACFAS billing and coding course did make a big difference in my reimbursement.
It really is how you say it (tactfully) to get credit for what you actually did.
Now I give them the buzz words and its better. At least for clinic. Still think im getting shafted for surgical billing.

Rumor has it we may be going AI for coding.
 
Thanks! I’ve been humbled by the amount of listeners, especially on Spotify and Apple - it has far exceeded my expectations.

Now back to complaining about jobs!
doesn’t your wife work in academia? Don’t you give even a little merit to the poor job market argument? Or do you really just not care that majority of those students are graduating into a job market that sucks?
And mathematically the debt they have combined with poor earning potential is going to ruin their chance at financial freedom?


The other thing: if jobs were better, I promise your student recruitment crisis deans chat is always mentioning would VANISH.
But kids are too smart these days. ChatGPT tells them Immediately what a **** investment podiatry is and no amount of podcasts can trick them into thinking otherwise

it’s hard to get amped up to learn about another surgical technique or whatever you guys talk about when student loan balances are ballooning, houses are more expensive than ever, and the surgery is going to pay next to nothing. why is surgery always the selling point of this field? Congratulations you can do surgery. Here’s your ****ty reimbursement and litigation.
 
How are the kaiser permanente California jobs as far as complexity of surgical cases ?
Northern CA and southern CA are two different animals.
In general KP NorCal jobs are much better. Near full scope at lots of facilities. Podiatrists are also partners.
SoCal is a bit trash compared to NorCal. Limited scope and podiatrists cannot be partners. I don't even think many are allowed to do rearfoot/ankle trauma at soCal facilities.

Both are entirely salary and not paid on productivity right? No incentive to do big cases.

There is also a ton of nepotism in KP. Most of the jobs go to residents who graduated from there or someone who has connections there (usually fellows through their PD).
I mean it makes sense though right- the three kaisers produce 9 residents a year that are trained the "kaiser way". why wouldn't they pick them over someone they don't know?

I will say that even this is starting to change though.... FELLOWSHIP training is making these jobs even more competitive.
 
Both are entirely salary and not paid on productivity right? No incentive to do big cases.
There is bonus component relating to access, it can be up to like another $30k or so.
NorCal KP is pretty much all affiliated with residencies, so your life is much easier. You may actually wanting to take on the big cases knowing your residents will be the ones doing the rounding and write up research papers.
SoCal KPs do not have standalone residency programs.
 
You can't afford to live there....that's why they are always open.
Not in CA. KP jobs are highly competitive here. Residents will kill each other to get into KP. Despite high cost of living, it's still rare for other podiatry jobs to start associates at $260-300k/year. That plus the pension, and a home loan downpayment assistance make them super attractive.

KP grads are no longer qualified enough. Now it's KP residency + PAMF fellowship that will get you in a NorCal Kaiser. Occasionally a PAMF fellow who committed to KP ended up working for Sutter Health, only then an outsider might get in.

Once retired, if the market struggles, maybe I will try to exec produce a Hunger Games reality show for NorCal podiatry... to bring in a little coin.

Kaiser residency lists where its graduates end up after training. In the last two years, none of the SF or SC residents got kaiser Job. Most in PE PP. Saturation.

You are presumably referring to this? (above)

I don't know anything about Balance Health and I presume they suck, but California doesn't allow non-competes so at least you can move once you get a better option...

All 3 grads are in predatory practices. Name sounds fancy but no

It's what I said. Now KP jobs require fellowships. KP residencies are no longer sufficient. You have to do a PAMF or CORE fellowship these days.
 
It seems nowadays even a good residency and a good fellowship are not enough for good jobs.

The 2024 PAMF fellows both ended up in PP. One is in a PE group PP. The PAMF Santa Cruz fellow also ended up in a same PE group. One Core fellow ended up in PP in AZ.

That sucks. I remembered the Santa Cruz PAMF has somewhat good placements, but I may be out of touch.
I feel bad for the PAMF fellows who end up at PE groups. PAMF fellows get paid like $100k plus benefits, so fellowship year may be the highlight of their professional careers when considering scope of practice and compensation.

Wait till you read the language of those PE contracts.

It’s bad but these grads have no choice. They only want to stay in CA, in the Bay Area. Google search of the Bay Area will have 100+ pods in one region.

What is in them so we all are warned?
There is non-compete, base salary expires after initial term, tail not covered... all kinds of stuff. Same as any associate contract, but typically more streamlined.

This is a train that has left the station. This is the new normal, guys. Sorry.

As much as DPM grads complained of low small/medium PP base salaries and the non-competes from those, at least you were dealing with real people. Some would never offer partnership, some would water down associate's collections, some would try to pin the associate with doing their own marketing or working Saturdays or seeing all the MedicAid or other nonsense. But at least you were dealing with real people and real PP owner - other DPMs: some had mentorship value or would reward productivity or might implement some associate ideas for the office(s) or agree over beers that they'd offer a partner plan or at least drop the non-compete. They were ok, not great (no employed job is). Still, it can always get worse... and now it has.

These PE supergroups are generally somewhere from bad to horrible; they are a faceless organization that simply runs its plan. They have all the downsides to traditional any traditional PPs - and with more teeth to enforce them. They push associates to do services that make shareholders money. They push protocols. The associate podiatrists - and all of their other employees - are nothing but a (replaceable) number to them. They put a worm (decent base salary) on the hook, and then associates are toast and stuck there as 30% slaves forever... with crummy benefits and no chance of partnership. It's podiatry's version of pharmacy grads taking jobs with Walgreens, CVS, RiteAid, Walmart.

And the people applying for and working associates at these PE supergroups will get what they deserve. They are dumb for working at these places... VERY dumb if non-compete are enforceable in the state they sign up for a PE job in. It is minorly dumb to work these jobs to buy time while making some $$ and connections in the area where non-competes are not valid (I did this for a year). And yes, I realize there are not many options for grads (podiatry was saturated before PE, even moreso now), but at least with traditional PP jobs, you had a chance for mentorship value or that they wouldn't want to litigate the non-compete or would at least offer some billing/mgmt learning value (if not partnership or buyout). The traditional PPs will continue to sell out to these PE groups predicatably (have been for years); no young DPMs or hospitals are offering them anything... so why wouldn't they get something instead of nothing when owner retires? 🙁

Okay that one looks shady because there's a bunch of different locations with the same recruiter and that's probably going to be nursing homes but hey you're going to make $340 K right?
 
I have a buddy who works with Owensboro and they have several podiatrists so I guess they are pod friendly. I think he told me base salary was around 250k with RVU bonus structure but that was 2 years ago.

Yes, generally you need to be within the first 24 to 48 hours otherwise they just essentially shut things down. You need to have all these sites bookmarked I'm sure somebody who's smart can figure out a way to get Claude to pull all them in and send you a daily email of new job postings.... There's nothing special about you You just got to get lucky and hope you have some type of connection to the area or something that you can BS your way through.... Your training doesn't matter.

Let me again repeat this for people I've said it many times nobody knows you're training nobody cares about your training they're used to real doctors in rural locations that don't want to stick around so they just want to know what's your connection there and why are you going to stick around. They don't know that you don't have any other offers and that you're desperate and you just want to get paid halfway decent amount of money and not get screwed over by private practice or private equity. But hey, that's our little secret.

Non op 7:30-5pm with admin/school duties and compensation is only 150-200 in New England area?
Is this normal up there?

They'd make more as an associate with less hours and admin duties elsewhere....

Edit: Not hating on poster, 619 has regularly posted tons of jobs good or bad- don't shoot the messenger.

This board in general treats all hospital type jobs as amazing (because our private practice opportunities are so limited), when in fact northeast coast academic positions in medical disciplines are often associated with sub-par reimbursement. If you read enough of the other medical forums you'll see discussions of all manner of hospital types in which some places are true academics and others are faux-academics where you are simply expected to churn patients under a large hospitals umbrella with or without resident/fellow education for compensation that may not be sufficient.
