I have growing interests in PMR but there is very little data on how physiatrists model their practices. Would any veteran physiatrists offer more details about their practice and specifically compensation? While I am verybinterested in PM&R, I *do* have the stats for other very competitive and profitable specialties, and if PMR’s compensation is lackluster, I’d rather not sacrifice the pay if it is very low. I hope not to come across avaricious/myopic, and am only asking for genuine answers.
1. How is physiatry demand? I would be interested in locums work.
2. Is there any possibility to do shift work/hospital work in PM&R?
3. Is PM&R open to setting up potential ancillary revenue streams/extenders? Maybe a “med spa”?
4. Is the practice conducive to setting up direct care or concierge medicine?
5. Is there any opportunity for research or clinical trials in the field?
6. How do you foresee PM&R to change in the future?
7. Are there any opportunities to practice telemedicine?
8. Are there any anecdotes from the upper echelons of PM&R salary? I have heard of neurologists taking home 600K-1M. Is such a range possible for a private practice physiatrist in rural medicine doing everything to maximize salary, increasing volume, and setting up ancillary services?
9. How is the possibility for encroachment by mid level practitioners?
Thank you for the answers
