Hi, I'm about to start my first job out of fellowship and have a question about what would be considered a reasonable request to my employer to cover some job-related expenses.
1. initial state full license application fee ($600)
2. FSMB fee (because my state required it as part of the state license application) (about $600)
3. renewal of state full license application fee ($600, because my birthday falls right outside of 90 days since the initial app sigh)
4. state controlled substance license ($150)
5. DEA fee (about $900)
6. BLS/ACLS re-certification (I had to do these specifically for the job for $300)
7. Oncology board ($2500), hematology board ($2500)
My job has CME funds, but the problem is all 1-7 need to be spent BEFORE my job start date (7/1/22), except 3, which is about 1.5months into the job. Affording all these on the fellow salary feels too much and I wanted to ask my future employer if any of these can be covered. I wanted to know what the "industry standard" is so I can set my expectations correctly.
